Host Plant Preferences, Ecological Factor And Molecular Phylogeny Of Tetraponera rufonigra JERDON (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) In Eastern Part Of Penang Island, Malaysia

Tetraponera rufonigra, commonly known as the arboreal bicolored ant has gained its notoriety as one of the medically-important pest insects in Malaysia. Tetraponera rufonigra is recognizable by its excruciating sting, causing a severe anaphylaxis especially to those with the history of allergy. A st...
