Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Texas Leaf-Cutting Ant and Its Control Atta texana, a fungus-growing ant found in Texas, Louisiana, and probably adjacent areas, is the most destructive species of the genus in this country. The ants from a single nest cause an estimated loss of from $3 to $4 annually on cereal and forage crops and much greater losses in orchard and truck crops.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Texas Leaf-Cutting Ant (Atta Texana Buckley) And Its Control in the Kisatchie National Forest of Louisiana The attacks of this ant on young planted pine trees occur in the late fall, winter, and early spring when there is a dearth of other green foliage. The injury consists in the cutting off of the needles close to the bud of the seedling in longleaf pine and the cutting off of both the needles and bud, as well as girdling of the living bark, in slash pine. The injured longleaf pines are weakened, but the damage resulting from defoliation appears not to be so severe, unless drought or other factors also affect the tree, when it may succumb, resulting in a much higher mortality than indicated at the first part of the season. In the case of slash pine, the in jury results in the death of the trees. After trees have become 2 to 3 feet high, they seem to have grown beyond the stage of fatal injury. Unfortunately this damage coincides with the planting season, December to March. Another type of injury is to longleaf pine seedlings in the cotyledon stage under conditions of natural reproduction, and here 100 percent loss has occurred in areas immediately adjacent to the ant colonies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ants have always fascinated the nature observer. Reports from ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia indicate that ants interested humans long ago. Myrmecology as a science had its beginning in the last century with great naturalists like Andre, Darwin, Emery, Escherich, Fabre, Fields, Forel, Janet, Karawaiew, McCook, Mayr, Smith, Wasmann and Wheeler. They studied ants as an interesting biological phenomenon, with little thought of the possible beneficial or detrimental effects ants could have on human activities (see Wheeler 1910 as an example). When Europeans began colonizing the New World, serious ant problems occurred. The first reports of pest ants came from Spanish and Portuguese officials of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries in Trinidad, The West Indies, Central America and South America. Leaf-cutting ants were blamed for making agricultural development almost impossible in many areas. These ants, Atta and Acromyrmex species, are undoubtedly the first ants identified as pests and may be considered to have initiated interest and research in applied myrmecology (Mariconi 1970).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1985 Research Conference on Fire Ants and Leaf-Cutting Ants covered the most recent developments in research and control of these insect pests of the New World tropical and subtropical zones, the southern United States, South and Central America, and the Caribbean Islands. This volume contains chapters that discuss the history and economics, biology and ecology, behavior, pheromones and other semiochemicals, physiology, and biochemistry of fire ants and leaf-cutting ants, as well as current and future control strategies. The information provided illustrates past and present agricultural and medical problems associated with these pest ants; however, it also brings out the point that they may at times be beneficial. The chapters on basic aspects of the biology and ecology of the ants provide up-to-date information that is useful for a more complete understanding of their social behavior and the unique symbiotic relationship between leaf-cutting ants and their fungi. New approaches to control are illustrated by innovative research on anti-feedant chemicals from plants that prevent feeding by leaf-cutting ants. The present status of chemical baits and biocontrol is addressed, as well as the possibilities of future novel methods based on the use of anti-metabolites, insect hormones, behavior modifying substances, and species-specific toxic bait systems to create integrated pest management systems.
