Integrating the immense, but scattered, published data with contributions from preeminent active researchers, this book presents the most up-to-date information on foraging ecology, individual search and social recruitment behaviors, and theoretical models of foraging and food exploitation among ants, bees, and wasps. It employs mathematical models to map coordinate processes and unites traditional studies with theoretical approaches. By cross referencing information and concluding with a final synthesis chapter, the authors ensure a complete understanding of the interrelationship between various disciplines regarding foraging and food exploitation in social insects.
Measuring the Adaptiveness of Social Insect Foraging Strategies: An Empirical Approach. Social Cues and Adaptive Foraging Strategies in Ants. Individual and Social Foraging in Social Wasps. Season-Dependent Foraging Patterns: Case Study of a Neotropical Forest-Dwelling Ant (Pachycondyla striata; Ponerinae). Foraging Range and the Spatial Distribution of Worker Bumble Bees. How to Tell Your Mates: Costs and Benefits of Different Recruitment Mechanisms. Social Information Use in Foraging Insects. Local Enhancement, Local Inhibition, Eavesdropping, and the Parasitism of Social Insect Communication. The Role of Scents in Honey Bee Foraging and Recruitment. Trophallaxis: A Mechanism of Information Transfer. Mobilizing the Foraging Force: Mechanical Signals in Stingless Bee Recruitment. Chemical Communication During Food Exploitation in Stingless Bees. The Use of Scent Marks by Foraging Bumble Bees. Information Transfer and the Organization of Foraging in Grass- and Leaf-Cutting Ants. An Evolutionary Simulation of the Origin of Pheromone Communication. Mathematical and Neural Network Models of Medium-Range Navigation During Social Insect Foraging. Social Insects and the Exploitation of Food Sources: Concluding Thoughts. Index.
