- W2189152007 abstract "In Kinabalu National Park, Borneo we ob- served four colonies of the Malaysian giant ant Cam- ponotus gigas in a primary forest. These predominantly nocturnal ants have underground nests, but forage in huge three-dimensional territories in the rain forest canopies. The colony on which our study was mainly focused had 17 nests with about 7000 foragers and oc- cupied a territory of 0.8 ha. To improve observation and manipulation possibilities, these nests were linked at ground level by 430 m of artificial bamboo trail. A group of specialist transport worker ants carried food from 'source' nests at the periphery to the central 'sink' nest of the queen. Transport of food between nests started immediately after the evening exodus of the foragers. Transporter ants formed a physical subcaste among the minors and behaved according to predictions of the central-place foraging theory. Their load size was about five times that of the average forager and grew proportionally with head width. Longer distances were run by ants with greater head width and larger gross weight. Transporter ants that ran more often took heavier loads. Experiments with extra-large baits re- vealed that C. gigas used long-range recruitment to bring foragers from diAerent nests to ''bonanzas'' at far distant places. The foraging strategy of C. gigas is based on a polydomous colony structure in combination with eAcient communication, ergonomic optimization, polyethism and an eAective recruitment system." @default.
