Worker demography in the ant <i>Formica neorufibarbis</i>
Abstract
Abstract. 1. Patterns of worker demography in the ant Formica neorufibarbis were documented under natural conditions. 2. Some workers lived at least 4 years. 3. In 4 of 5 years, colonies were more likely to retain older workers than new workers. 4. Workers persisted for more years in colonies lacking queens than in queenright colonies.
