• Why are leaf‐cutting ants more common in early secondary forests than in old‐growth tropical forests? An evaluation of the palatable forage hypothesis (2001, background): “Despite they eventually abandoned their nests (see Farji-Brener and Illes 2000); once established leaf-cutter ant colonies often remain at the same nest-site for many years (Weber 1982, Cherrett 1989).”
