Some ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) from Southern Vancouver Island, British Columbia.

Abstract

A study of the ants collected in and around Victoria and on Thetis Island during the Autumn of 1987 and the Spring of 1988 is described. Twenty-four species were found, and the locations and habitats have been noted. Two of the Leptothorax species are believed to be new records for Canada and another remains unidentified. Some myrmecophiles were also recorded.
