  • Pheidole pallidula

    Hallo,


    benutze doch erst einmal die Suchfunktion bevor du solche Fragen stellst.
    Die meisten Fragen werden wohl mit den Haltungsberichten dieser Art aus diesem Forum hier klar.

  • Diskussion - malodeks Pheidole

    Die Kolonie wird genau so lange weiterleben wie sie es tun würde, wenn die Königin noch leben würde.
    Es werden nur keine Nachkommen mehr zu finden sein, sodass die Zeit den Tod der Kolonie bedeutet.


    Edit : Ja die Frage hast du ja bereits gestellt, ich verstehe nicht den Sinn deines 2ten Postings.

  • Will, dass die Lasius niger Kolonie nicht zu groß wird

    Man könnte die eiweißhaltige Nahrung reduzieren, dann geht die Nachwuchsproduktion zurück, würde ich sagen.


    Für den Urlaub kann man nur sagen , dass sich jemand darum kümmern sollte, oder du fütterst sehr viel und hoffst einfach das sie überleben :smiling_face:
    Es gibt auch in einem Shop eine Lösung, eine Futterlösung die länger hält und speziell für einen Urlaub ist.

  • Diskriminierung

    LoL.


    Wo macht denn irgendwer irgendwen runter?
    Es ist doch nur ein Fakt der offen angesprochen wurde UND der jetzt geklärt wurde.
    Er und auch andere Benutzer haben die MÖGLICHKEIT dieses Googleprogramm zu nutzen um sich selber und den anderen Benutzern des Forums zu helfen. Also wo ist das Problem. Damit ist es doch gegessen und hat absoulut nichts mit Diskriminierung zu tun, zumindest nicht für mich.


    Ausserdem hätte er es auch selber ansprechen können.



    @ Admin bitte schliessen.

  • Diskriminierung

    Hallo,


    da die anderen User Beiträge auch lesen sollen und können, müssen sie ordentlich verfasst werden.
    Gerade in einem Forum wird es schnell unübersichtlich wenn dies nicht so ist. Ich persönlich habe selber keine Lust mir über jedes Wort eines anderen Benutzers Gedanken zu machen was er mir damit sagen will, deshalb lese ich einfach die Beiträge von manchen Benutzern nicht, oder weise sie freundlich drauf hin.


    Es gibt auch Programme, die den Leuten die anscheinend nicht richtig schreiben können helfen. Sie sollten einfach die Chance nutzen, denn dabei kann man ja auch gleich lernen!


    Es ist klar das nicht jeder Satz und nicht jedes Wort in einem solchem Forum 100%ig grammatikalisch korrekt sein kann, aber ich finde man kann sich Mühe geben und das sehe ich bei manchen nicht, deshalb habe ich mich auch beschwert.

  • Pheidole pallidula - Bilder von Cookie

    Hallo,


    ich würde totalen Neueinsteigern von dieser Art abraten, denn sie sind Ausbruchskünstler und können auch unter bestimmten Bedingungen sich in den Häusern einnisten.
    Es wäre zu gefährlich und am Ende ein teures Hobby, wenn "Mann" einen Kammerjäger bezahlen muss um die Tiere entfernen zu lassen.

    Naja, ich dachte vielleicht hätte jemand daran Spass.
    Muss aber nicht.



    Hier die Auflösung

    Long Answer Key
    1 C: Cephalotes atratus
    http://www.berkeley.edu/news/med...ants.shtml


    2 C: Solenopsis richteri
    http://www.msstate.edu/org/missi...chteri.htm


    3 A: 625
    Some of you might have noticed I didnât cite âPheidole in the New Worldâ? in my opening and I must confess I got the answer form a website trying to sell the book. However I also found another website saying the answer was 624.
    http://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog/WILPHE.html


    4 C: Myrmelachista schumanni
    news.softpedia.com/news/A...9043.shtml


    5 B: They frequently change direction, especially when disturbed.
    http://www.deh.gov.au/parks/chri...crazy.html


    6 A or N/A: I had the answer as A: Monomorium pharaonis but it seems they do form super colonies according to âJourney to the Antsâ? page 39-40 which says a super colony is an entity of theoretical unlimited size. In âThe Antsâ? the definition of a super colony is an unicolonial population, in which workers move freely from one nest to another, so that the entire population is a single colony. Iâve never read or herd of Monomorium pharaonis acting in this way, so this is open to debate.


    7 C: Formica
    http://www.myrmecos.net/formicinae/ForWhe1.html


    8 A: Pheidole
    dermatology.cdlib.org/93/...adini.html


    9 A or B: 20-25mm about
    animaldiversity.ummz.umic...xdens.html
    âThe queen is the largest ant in the colony, often measuring an inch or longerâ? Thatâs about 23mm so A or B was correct.


    10 B: On the inner surface of a mandible.
    âJourney to the Antsâ? page 133, diagram C, âThe Circocylliba mite belongs to a species specialized for riding on the inner surface of the mandibles of major workers of Eciton.


    11 D: Paratrechina
    http://www.myrmecos.net/formicin...china.html
    Probably shouldnât be using that as a source but I trust him.


    12 A: Conomyrma bicolor
    âJourney to the Antsâ? pictured between pages 84 and 85.


    13 D: Acropyga epedana
    http://www.myrmecos.net/formicinae/AcrEpe1.html


    14 D: Leucocoprinus
    Because Penicillin is the fungus that grows on oranges, Lactobacillus grows on tomato juice agar, and I have no idea what the other one is (probably thanks to my spell checker).
    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entr...t=Abstract


    15 C: Colobopsis truncates
    âThe Antsâ? page 331 Figure 8-33


    16 B: Neurotoxin
    http://www.sasionline.org/antsfi...etbio.html
    8th section down, Stings, Venom, and Defensive Behavio.


    17 A: Temnothorax curvispinosus
    http://www.biosci.ohio-state.edu...simusQ.htm
    Picture of them as the host. They are also the target of several slave-raiding species.


    18 C: They dab repellent on enemies with their gaster in an over head fashion.



    19 B: Formica neogagates
    http://www.myrmecos.net/formicin...gates.html


    20 B: Prenolepis imparis
    ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/2000/2155.html
    I think this site has the best diagram of their replete caste.


    21 B: Myrmica rubra
    âThe Antsâ? page 156. This was a hard one since so many other species were listed.


    22 A: In the first half hour.
    âJourney to the Antsâ? pictured between pages 84 and 85.


    23 B: 1/10
    âThe Antsâ? page 324, Figure 8-26


    24 A: Tetramorium caespitum
    Also not sure on the source.


    25 C: Camponotus castaneus
    pick4.pick.uga.edu/mp/20q...s&cl=US/MA
    You have to scroll down to Camponotus castaneus on the left and third picture down is an orange male.


    26 C: Aenictus
    http://www.myrmecos.net/ants/aenictus.html


    27 A: Myrmoteras toro
    âThe Antsâ? page 278, Figure 7-54


    28 A: Take care of eggs and young larvae.
    âJourney to the Antsâ? Pictured between page 84 and 85. The minor caste is rarely seen since they are always inside the nest with the eggs and young larvae.


    29 B: Oecophylla smaragdina
    http://www.geocities.com/brisban...tleAnt.htm
    Here they are seen nesting like weaver ants. I believe a bit more mud goes into their structure however.


    30 D: Black with Orange/Yellow abdomen
    http://www.myrmecos.net/formicin...ystus.html
    I actually didnât know all three patterns but from looking over some pictures I named a pattern I didnât see.


    31 A: Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee
    ipmworld.umn.edu/chapters/lockley.htm
    I think this is actually an old site but most up to date.


    32 D: Proceratium google
    http://www.antweb.org/descriptio...e&project=


    33 B: Amblyopone
    http://www.myrmecos.net/ants/amblyopone.html


    34 A: Myrmecia
    http://www.myrmecos.net/ants/myrmecia.html
    These ants are also in a documentary, I think called âKiller Antsâ? because of theâJack Jumperâsâ? nasty sting.


    35 C: Paratrechina longicornis
    Because these ants would most likely nest in leaf litter or hallow space and Solenopsis molesta conduct their raids underground.


    36 A: Between two microscope slides (76 X 26mm).
    âJourney to the Antsâ? page 218


    37 D: 300,000 or more
    http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/TOOLS...araoh.html
    âColonies with up to 300,000 workers with multiple queensâ?
    I should have removed the âor moreâ? part, but as Dr.Ant stated "Depends on size of the founding population and how long since establishment of the population."


    38 C: Christmas Island Crabs
    http://www.deh.gov.au/parks/chri...crazy.html


    39 D: Oligogyny
    âThe Antsâ? page 641


    40 A: They fallow raiding swarms of army ants and feed on insects stirred up by them.
    âThe Antsâ? page 635
