It is argued that some of the same factors which might predispose one species to evolve into a social parasite might make resistance to parasitism difficult for a closely related species.

This paper concerns populations of the ant Aphaenogaster rudis Emery studied at St. Charles County, Missouri, during 1947–1949, giving together a year-around picture of their nesting conditions, maturing of brood, and hibernation.
Population Studies of the Ant, Prenolepis Imparis Say
- M. Talbot
- Environmental Science
- 1943
Studies of population of ants have been scattered and fragmentary, and have for the most part been based upon isolated counts of members of large or otherwise conspicuous colonies. Emerson ('39) has…
Distribution of Ant Species in the Chicago Region with Reference to Ecological Factors and Physiological Toleration

- 1 October 1934
It is believed that if sufficient groups of animals: ants, spiders, snails, mammals, etc., are studied through the steps of ecological succession, and if these studies are later gathered together, as complete a picture of animal succession may be shown for the region as has already been described for the plants.

Populations of ants were studied in a mixed oak-hickory woods in St. Charles County, Missouri during the fall, winter, and spring, and records were kept of the species of ants, number of colonies, types of nests and hibernating conditions.
A Comparison of Flights of Four Species of Ants
- M. Talbot
- Environmental Science
- 1 September 1945
Comparing the rather diverse types of flights of four species of ants belonging to four different genera found that, for these four species at least, flights are spread over several days, not all of the colonies of an area are necessarily active on all of one of the days, and notall of the individuals of a colony need take part in any one flight.
Flights of the Ant Polyergus Lucidus Mayr
- M. Talbot
- History
- 1968
Flights of ants at the Edwin S. George Reserve, Livingston County, Michigan, have been studied over a number of years (Talbot 956, I959, 963, I964, 966, and Kannowski 959a, 959b). This paper is…
A Comparison of Two Ants of the Genus Formica
- M. Talbot
- Environmental Science
- 1 July 1948
A population study of twc ants of the genus Formica and the species pallidefulva, finding similarities and differences in nests of incerta and nitidiventris and trying to find differences, other than structural ones, which would help to distinguish the two groups of ants.
