• Ants defend coffee from berry borer colonization (2013, result): “It is surprising that Crematogaster spp. and S. picea did not limit the colonization of berries, considering that other studies have shown species within these two genera have important effects on herbivores (Kaplan and Eubanks 2005; Philpott et al. 2008).”
• Argentine ants displace floral arthropods in a biodiversity hotspot (2007, background): “Argentine ants, like many other ant species, can be attracted to plants by carbohydrate resources and may then displace plant- associated arthropods (Kaplan & Eubanks, 2005; Altfeld & Stiling, 2006).”
• REVIEW: Ants as tools in sustainable agriculture (2015, background): “However, as described above several cases exist where ground-nesting invasive ants act as beneficials even in annual crops (see also Kaplan & Eubanks 2005).”
• Ecological Effects of Invasive Arthropod Generalist Predators (2006, background): “The aphids support high ant densities, thereby exacerbating the negative effect of the ants on other predators (Kaplan & Eubanks 2005).”
• Herbivore‐induced indirect interaction webs on terrestrial plants: the importance of non‐trophic, indirect, and facilitative interactions (2008, background): “Kaplan & Eubanks (2005) illustrated that the mutualistic association between cotton aphids, Aphis gossypii Glover (Homoptera: Aphididae), and red fire ants, Solenopsis invicta Buren (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), on cotton plants negatively influenced 27% of herbivore and 54% of predator taxa.”
