Résumé : | In Tetramorium impurum, an ethological factor can be found on workers' last visible abdominal sternite. For a short time, it attracts ants, increases their linear speed and enhances the efficiency of the trail pheromone. This factor is not colony-specific but may play a role in the foraging and recruiting systems of the species. |
