da Silva R, do Nascimento F, Oi C
Curr Res Insect Sci
. 2025 Feb;
7:100107.
PMID: 39980888
The family Vespidae represents a key group to understand the evolutionary trajectory of social behavior in insects, as these wasps display the entire spectrum of social behaviors, from solitary to...

Insect Sci
. 2024 Nov;
PMID: 39604640
Resource partitioning among sympatric species is crucial for assembling ecological communities, such as caterpillar-ant assemblages in tropical forests. Myrmecophilous caterpillars use behavioral and chemical strategies to coexist with ants, avoiding...

Ceballos-Gonzalez A, da Silva R, Lima L, Kaminski L, Turatti I, Lopes N, et al.
J Chem Ecol
. 2024 May;
50(5-6):222-236.
PMID: 38748380
In myrmecophilous organisms, which live in symbiosis with ants, cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) play a pivotal role in interspecific communication and defense against chemical-oriented predators. Although these interactions form complex information...

de Souza A, Polo J, Santos E, do Nascimento F, Rantala M
J Evol Biol
. 2024 Apr;
37(5):548-554.
PMID: 38596874
Sperm competition and male mating rate are two non-mutually exclusive key evolutionary pressures selecting for larger testes within and across animal taxa. A few studies have tried to test the...

Prato A, Santos E, Ferreira H, Oi C, do Nascimento F, Rantala M, et al.
J Insect Physiol
. 2024 Mar;
154:104629.
PMID: 38430966
Workers of social hymenopterans (ants, bees and wasps) display specific tasks depending on whether they are younger or older. The relative importance of behavior and age in modulating immune function...

Lima L, Ceballos-Gonzalez A, Prato A, Cavalleri A, Trigo J, do Nascimento F
Plants (Basel)
. 2024 Jan;
13(2).
PMID: 38256769
Ants patrol foliage and exert a strong selective pressure on herbivorous insects, being their primary predators. As ants are chemically oriented, some organisms that interact with them (myrmecophiles) use chemical...

da Silva R, Oi C, do Nascimento F
Neotrop Entomol
. 2023 Oct;
52(6):1041-1056.
PMID: 37861965
Chemical communication plays a major role in regulating social dynamics in social insect colonies. The most studied class of chemical compounds are the cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs), compounds with high molecular...

de Souza A, Prato A, Franca W, Santos S, Lima L, Alves D, et al.
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int
. 2023 Sep;
30(47):103851-103861.
PMID: 37695481
Fungus-based biopesticides have been used worldwide for crop pest control as a safer alternative to chemical pesticides such as neonicotinoids. Both agrochemicals can be lethal and may also trigger side...

de Souza A, Franca W, Prato A, do Nascimento F
Curr Zool
. 2023 Jun;
69(3):324-331.
PMID: 37351293
During social interactions, the behavior of an individual often depends on the sex of its social partner. Many animal societies have males and females that play very different behavioral roles,...

Naturwissenschaften
. 2023 May;
110(3):25.
PMID: 37227507
Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are often used in the chemical communication among social insects. CHCs can be used in nestmate recognition and as queen pheromones, the latter allows the regulation of...
