About this Project

The unique biology of ants and their occurrence in the natural forests and farmlands makes them an ideal of interest and so become important indicators of any functioning ecosystem for the activities that they carry every time for their living. The influence of other environmental factors (open ground, canopy density) on the species richness will also be studied.
