This study aimed to determine how the richness and composition of ant species behaves with changes in the recovery process of a gully erosion. The study area has 0.9 hectares subdivided into three sections called sector: A, B and C. For the definition of the sectors, erosive and natural restoring were taken as the base level of activity. Four transects were laid systematically throughout the area and surrounding compound with forest and grassland. Each transect had three pitfall trap ten meters apart from each other, with catches of ants were held in rainy and dry seasons. Analysis of variance was applied to compare the number of ant species per plot captured and Scott-Knott test 5% for comparison of means. To verify the similarity of species between environments it was performed an analysis of similarity (ANOSIM) and ordering of environments a Nonmetric Multidimensional Scaling (NMDS). We captured 74 species of ants inside and around the gully erosion. The more degraded environment and initial stage of regeneration, showed greater richness of ant species. The composition of ant species was different between the recovery environments and around. The parameters of ant communities analyzed, richness and composition species were influenced by the regeneration of the area, indicating that ants can be used as bioindicators of gullies recovery.

O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever a diversidade, composição e a similaridade da fauna de formigas entre sete remanescentes de Floresta Ombrófila Densa da Bacia Hidrográfica do Alto Tietê. Dois desses remanescentes pertencem à Unidades de Conservação, quatro estão sob proteção e um fragmento pertence à propriedade particular. Em cada área foram coletadas 50 m2 de serapilheira, que foram submetidas à extratores do tipo mini-Winkler, onde permaneceram por 48 h. Todas as coletas ocorreram no período chuvoso. No total foram registradas 11 subfamílias, 44 gêneros e 158 morfoespécies/espécies de formigas. As espécies mais frequentes em todas as áreas foram Pheidole sp.7, Solenopsis sp.1, Hypoponera sp.1 e Strumigenys denticulate. O maior valor de diversidade α foi registrado na unidade de conservação com composição florística de Mata Atlântica; o menor valor em florestas com influência antrópica. A variação na composição de espécies entre as áreas indica a substituição de espécies entre os remanescentes de Floresta Ombrófila Densa da Bacia Hidrográfica do Alto Tietê, o que sugere a importância da preservação dessas áreas para a conservação da diversidade regional da fauna de formigas.

The foraging activity of Geotrigona mombuca Smith, 1863 was studied under natural conditions aiming to verify the influence of seasonal changes on daily flight activity and annual cycle of the colony. Daily flight activity was monitored for a year based on the observation and counting of foragers leaving and entering the hive, as well as the kind of material transported and meteorological factors such as day time, temperature and relative humidity. The influence of seasonal changes was evidenced by alterations on daily rhythm of flight activity and by differences on transportation of food resources, building material and garbage. These data indicate that forager behavior is related to daily microclimate conditions and it is synchronized with the requirements of colony annual cycle, which determines an intense pollen collection in the summer. Thus, the recomposition of the intranidal population in spring and summer can be ensured, which is characterized both for a higher intensity of flight activity and increase in garbage and resin transport, as well as the swarming process in the spring. In this way, an action targeting the preservation or management of the species in a natural environment should consider that survival and reproduction of the colony depends greatly on the amount of available pollen in late winter.
