   Муравьи Diacamma ceylonense не имеют настоящих маток. In the queenless ant, Diacamma ceylonense, the cuticular hydrocarbons (C25-C35) of nestmate workers vary in their proportions according to age and fertility. Newly eclosed adults ('callows') initially have the same cuticular profile, but with time this changes to that typical of foragers. In contrast, workers that begin to produce eggs develop a different cuticular profile. Several substances (n-C29 and some methyl C25 and C27) discriminate these different social categories (callows, foragers and egg-layers). In Diacamma ceylonense, inter-colony variation of the cuticular hydrocarbons was much lower than intra-colony variation. We also found qualitative differences between the sexes, with males having a clearly different profile with much more alkanes. We discuss these results in the context of physiological models of the relation between ovarian activity and the synthesis of cuticular hydrocarbons. Variations in cuticular profile are a reliable reflection of ovarian activity, and could be used by ants as a fertility signal.

    Исследование социальной организации Diacamma rugosum. This work is a part of a study on the social organization of Diacamma rugosum, a large ponerine ant, which lacks a distinctive reproductive queen. This ant forms a small colony and frequently changes its nest site when the environmental conditions become unfavourable. Experiments in the laboratory showed that slight physical disturbance easily caused colony movement. The process of movement consisted of 3 successive phases: a) an exploration period, b) an[sic] movement period and c) a final movement period. The movement was organized by leader ants and 5 to 25% of all workers became leaders. These workers showed both tandem running and carrying behaviour during movement, tandem running being employed to recruit workers, whereas carrying behaviour was strictly limited to carrying eggs, larvae, pupae and males. During movement most of the tandem leader ants are those engaged in outdoor works in daily life. Potential of workers to become tandem leaders was correlated with outside works undertaken in daily life.

    Движение тандемом и по следам у муравья Diacamma rugosum. During nest emigration, Diacamma rugosum scouts recruit female nestmates to the new nest site by tandm running. Males, brood and prey objects are carried. The tandem leaders stimulate their nestmates to follow them by pushing or, more rarely, pulling them with the mandibles. The signals releasing the following behaviour are mainly chemical. Only 15-30% of motivated followers react positively to an odourless paper or wax dummy. The workers follow cut-off thoraces, legs and gasters plugged at the end or without hind gut and sting apparatus, just as well as a leading ant. The ants even follow a dummy consisting of body parts if they are not in direct mechanical contact with it. The leading effect of the body surface is not reduced by intensive cleaning with water or by extraction in solvents of different polarity. only maceration in potash lye eliminates the leading effectiveness of the cuticula. None of the secretions of the tested abdominal glands release following behavior. Only the hind gut fluid possesses leading signal qualities. No distribution of faeces over the bodies of the leading ants can be observed before or during tandem running. The faecal pheromone responsible for this leading effect does not seep into the superficial layer of a leader dummy made from bee wax but it can be washed off with water. these results show that the actual signal releasing tandem following is an unspecific odour substance of the cuticula surface. The presence of the hind gut fluid is not necessary for the tandem following response. It may be an additional signal. During nest emigration the hind gut fluid is scattered patchily in the form of small droplets by the nest finders on their way to the new nest. No increased deposition of faecal droplets could be observed on the way to repeatedly visited rich food sources. The hind gut fluids serves as a long lasting trail substance and has an exclusively orienting effect. The secretions of the other abdominal glands are not trail pheromones. The nest entrance is marked colony-specifically.
