Category:Gamergate

Gamergates (mated, egg-laying workers) ([[Media:Peeters 91 LinnSoc.pdf|Peeters 1991]]) have been investigated in the following taxa.

In a few genera (Diacamma, Dinoponera, Hagensia, Ophthalmopone, Streblognathus), winged queens are completely absent and gamergates may be assumed to reproduce in every species. In other genera, gamergates have evolved in a few species only and their occurrence needs to be studied systematically.
