The Influence of Extrafloral Nectaries on Arboreal Ant Species Richness in Tree Communities

The Influence of Extrafloral Nectaries on Arboreal Ant Species Richness in Tree Communities

Studies investigating the role of resource availability in the species richness patterns can elucidate ecological processes and contribute to conservation strategies. In this study, we test two hypotheses: i) arboreal ant species richness increases with abundance of extrafloral nectaries-bearing tr...
