Spatial structure and nest demography reveal the influence of competition, parasitism and habitat quality on slavemaking ants and their hosts
BACKGROUND: Natural communities are structured by intra-guild competition, predation or parasitism and the abiotic environment. We studied the relative importance of these factors in two host-social parasite ecosystems in three ant communities in Europe (Bavaria) and North America (New York, West Vi...
