The spatial distribution and environmental triggers of ant mating flights: using citizen-science data to reveal national patterns
Many ant species produce winged reproductive males and females that embark on mating flights. Previous research has shown substantial synchrony in flights between colonies and that weather influences phenology but these studies have been limited by sample size and spatiotemporal scale. Using citizen...
