Occurrence of Winged Forms of Atta sexdens rubropilosa Forel (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in Laboratory Colonies Neotropical Entomology
BUENO,ODAIR C.; HEBLING,MARIA J.A.; SCHNEIDER,MARCELO O.; PAGNOCCA,FERNANDO C.; BACCI JR,MAURÍCIO.
The production of hundreds of reproductive forms of Atta sexdens rubropilosa Forel in nests maintained in laboratory was observed for the first time in Brazil. Last instar male larvae were found on August 5, 2000 in a six-year-old colony with approximately 110 L of fungus garden distributed in 21 pots. Thirty to forty days later, queen larvae started to be seen. The adult sexual forms were comparable in size with those found in the field. Two apparent failed attempts of a nuptial flight were observed during the last week of October, followed by the appearance of dead males and females in the garbage piles of the colony.

Lipid and energy contents in the bodies of queens of Atta sexdens rubropilosa Forel (Hymenoptera, Formicidae): pre-and post-nuptial flight Rev. Bras. entomol.
Fujihara,Ricardo Toshio; Camargo,Roberto da Silva; Forti,Luiz Carlos.
The nuptial flight allows males and females to meet and copulate and both need energy to perform this activity. Before leaving the nest, males and females are well nourished and ready to mate. However, little is known about the lipid and energy contents in females before the nuptial flight (virgins) and after it (mated females). In this work we measured lipid concentrations in relation to body weight in these individuals. Our results showed that 16.82% of the bodies of young virgin females one month before mating flight are composed of lipids, contrasting with the 32.62% lipid content in mated females who had not excavated their nest yet, and 32.88% in those who had. The energy content measured for virgin females was 2942.63 J, contrasting with 6110.01 J...
