Feener Jr., Donald, H.

BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE
I study the behavior, ecology and evolution of ants and the insects that interact with them. Ants comprise a diverse and ecologically successful group that supports an even more diverse assemblage of insects and other arthropods. I seek to understand the behavioral and ecological characteristics that have allowed ants to obtain ecological dominance in many communities and how ant associates are able to exploit these ecological dominants.
