Abstract
The objective of this research was to evaluate the cutting preference of Acromyrmex laticeps nigrosetosus workers among three species and a Clone of eucalypt. The seedlings of Eucalyptus spp. were offered simultaneously to three colonies of this leaf-cutting ant under laboratory conditions. The assay ended six hours after initial offering or until the workers of a colony cut all leaves of a certain eucalyptus species. On the average, colonies cut and carried 0.453g ± 0.064 of Eucalyptus camaldulensis; 0.384g ± 0.052 of Clone 129; 0.341g ± 0.054 of Eucalyptus urophylla and 0.102g ± 0.027 of Eucalyptus cloeziana. This last species was the least preferred for cutting and carrying. On the other hand, there was no significant difference among the amount of leaves cut from the other eucalypts.
هدفت هذه الدراسة إلى تقييم تفضيل القطع لدى شغالات نمل Acromyrmex laticeps nigrosetosus بين ثلاثة أنواع ونسيلة واحدة من الأوكالبتوس (الكافور). قُدِّمت شتلات أنواع الأوكالبتوس (Eucalyptus spp.) بصورة متزامنة إلى ثلاث مستعمرات من هذا النمل القاطع للأوراق تحت ظروف معملية. انتهت التجربة بعد ست ساعات من التقديم الأولي، أو عند قطع شغالات إحدى المستعمرات لجميع أوراق نوع معين من الأوكالبتوس. وفي المتوسط، قطعت المستعمرات ونقلت 0.453 جم ± 0.064 من Eucalyptus camaldulensis؛ و0.384 جم ± 0.052 من النسيلة 129؛ و0.341 جم ± 0.054 من Eucalyptus urophylla؛ و0.102 جم ± 0.027 من Eucalyptus cloeziana. وكان هذا النوع الأخير هو الأقل تفضيلًا في القطع والنقل. ومن جهة أخرى، لم يكن هناك فرق ذو دلالة إحصائية بين كميات الأوراق المقطوعة من أنواع الأوكالبتوس الأخرى.
