Dynamics of locomotion in the seed harvesting ant Messor barbarus: effect of individual body mass and transported load mass
Ants are well-known for their amazing load carriage performances. Yet, the biomechanics of locomotion during load transport in these insects has so far been poorly investigated. Here, we present a study of the biomechanics of unloaded and loaded locomotion in the polymorphic seed-harvesting ant Mess...
