Arboreal Ants Community Associated with the Pequizeiro (Caryocar brasiliense) in the Remnant of Cerrado Goiano
Community of arboreal ants associated with the pequizeiro (Caryocar brasiliense Camb.) in the remnant of cerrado goiano (State of Goiás, Brazil) was surveyed in the trunk of these plants, using bait based on sardine and soy oil. During one year, in the four climatic seasons, consecutive collects of the ants were accomplished. A total of 32 species was collected during the studuy period. Myrmicinae and Formicinae were the most frequently subfamilies found. Significant difference was verified in the composition of the arboreal ants community along the investigated climatic seasons. Significant correlation was not verified between size of the trees and richness of ant species associated to the pequizeiro
