Summary: | In the present paper the author offers new data to the knowledge of the ant-fauna of the Cri§ul Repede river valley, summarizing and increasing the number of known species to 34, including the Formica balcanina and the Myrmica hellenica species which were reported for the first time in Romania. By classifying the ant-fauna of the different sample-sites on the basis of the ecofaunistical types, the bank of the river is characterized through the composition of the ant-fauna. Regarding the F. balcanina the author proposes the idea that the river valley could have served as an ecological corridor for this species. |
