Prey specialization and chemical mimicry between Formica archboldi and Odontomachus ants
INSECTES SOCIAUX, 66(2), 211–222.
author keywords: Cuticular hydrocarbons; Predator-prey interactions; Social insects; Chemical deception; Social parasitism
TL;DR:
Behavioral evidence is found that F. archboldi are more capable predators of Odontomachus in comparison to other Formica, and the intraspecific variability in F.archboldi cuticular hydrocarbon profiles is among the greatest reported for social insects and provides a unique case of how non-parasitic species can generate parasite-like chemical-mimic phenotypes.

Partitioning global change: Assessing the relative importance of changes in climate and land cover for changes in avian distribution
ECOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, 9(4), 1985–2003.
TL;DR:
The weak correlation between vital rates and temporal changes in covariates indicated that the most relevant components of global change influencing the distributions of these species are yet to be identified and that spatially significant covariates are not necessarily driving temporal shifts in avian distributions.
