complex are epigaeic, predaceous, form small colonies, and are thought to display a relatively simple behavioral repertoire. Because these ants possess purportedly “primitive” traits (Peeters 1997), they have served as model organisms for studies of ant foraging (Fresneau 1985, Goss et al 1989), colony social structure (Fresneau 1984, Dietemann &amp; Peeters 2000, Gobin et al 2003), and pheromone production and dissemination (Traniello &amp;
