By: S. Diamond n, L. Nichols n , N. McCoy n, C. Hirsch n, S. Pelini *, N. Sanders *, A. Ellison *, N. Gotelli *, R. Dunn n

author keywords: critical thermal maximum; Duke Forest; North Carolina; USA; ectotherm responses to global warming; Formicidae; global change; Harvard Forest; Massachusetts; USA; maximum entropy; physiology; species distribution model; temperate hardwood forests; eastern North America; thermal tolerance
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological / genetics; Adaptation, Physiological / physiology; Animals; Ants / classification; Ants / genetics; Ants / physiology; Climate Change; Ecosystem; Hot Temperature; Models, Biological; Species Specificity; Trees
TL;DR: In environments close to a species' physiological limits, physiological trait-based measurements can successfully forecast the responses of species to future conditions, and such models may not be accurate for predicting site-level responses. (via Semantic Scholar)

2010 journal article

The ecology of a keystone seed disperser, the ant Rhytidoponera violacea

Journal of Insect Science, 10.

By: D. Lubertazzi  n, M. Lubertazzi*, N. McCoy n, A. Gove*, J. Majer * & R. Dunn n 

Contributors: D. Lubertazzi  n, M. Aliberti Lubertazzi*, N. McCoy n, A. Gove*, J. Majer * & R. Dunn n 

MeSH headings : Animals; Ants / physiology; Appetitive Behavior / physiology; Diet; Nesting Behavior / physiology; Observation; Seed Dispersal / physiology; Western Australia
TL;DR: R. violacea nesting habits, foraging behavior, and other life history characteristics complement their role as a mutualist that interacts with the seeds of many plant species. (via Semantic Scholar)
