description | Ant species richness and diversity may be increased in more complex habitats because they provide
more niches and diverse ways of exploiting the environmental resources. Because of the connection between
the organisms and habitat characteristics, ants have been used as tools for environmental monitoring of
disturbed areas. In this study the structure of the ant community was investigated in plots with different
management strategies for the rehabilitation of a mined area at Ilha da Madeira, Itaguaí, RJ, Brazil. A
different and richer ant fauna was found in plots with more native tree species than in plots with a low
number of tree species or without conservationist management. |
