      Красный огненный муравей Solenopsis invicta Buren является вредителем и на борьбу с ним тратятся миллионы долларов в южных штатах США. Красный импортированный муравьей (The Red Imported Fire Ant - RIFA) Solenopsis invicta Buren (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) это инвазивный вид в юго-восточных штатах США, который был интродуцирован туда из Южной Америки около 70 лет назад и сейчас снижает биологическое разнообразие местных экосистем. И, кроме того, не смотря на мелкий размер, очень неприятно и больно жалится.

В базе данных Formis 2003 зафиксировано несколько тысяч (3100) научных, исследовательских и научно-практических статей, книг, монографий по красным импортированным огненным муравьям Solenopsis invicta (The Red Imported Fire Ant - RIFA). Но хотя, в взаголовках он упоминается только в 500 статьях, всего в этой базе данных род Solenopsis упоминается в 4538 ссылках. Ни один другой вид (кроме листорезов Attini) не привлекал такого огромного внимания к себе. Привести всех их сейчас не представляется возможным (легче скачать все 7-14 Мегабайт базы Formis-2003). Одних только диссертаций было написано около 80, в том числе Ph.D. dissert. - 48 (остальные - M.S. thesis). Вот их-то я и выбрал для начала:

• Anon. (2001). "Solenopsis invicta Buren, 1972 (Insecta, Hymenoptera): specific name conserved." Bull. Zool. Nomencl. 58: 156-157.
  Это не диссертация (поэтому без номера), а важное номенклатурное действие. Поддержано предложение о сохранении видового названия Solenopsis invicta Buren, 1972.
        The application by Shattuck, S.O., Porter, S.D., & Wojcik, D.P., 1999, Solenopsis invicta Buren, 1972 (Insecta, Hymenoptera): proposed conservation of the specific name, Bull. Zool. Nomencl. 56: 27-30 is upheld.

    [Note: S. saevissima is S. invicta or S. richteri in North America] Experiments were conducted in 1957 to determine food habits of the imported fire ant, Solenopsis saevissima richteri Forel, by field observations and laboratory experiments. Ant mounds were dissected in the field to determine food storage, and ants were observed at work to determine the food materials collected by the foraging ant parties. This investigation revealed that the ant is somewhat omnivorous; however, the primary dietary item was insects, both alive and dead. The ant was also observed to tend aphids and scale insects. In only one instance was it observed feeding on vegetative matter; but in the laboratory, when kept without food for several days, it fed on a few species of seedling plants. Most colonies became cannibalistic rather than feed on plant material. On occasion they were observed to carry seeds to the nest.
