A single queen in the tropics; large colonies in deserts; workers with uniform morphology in temperate regions; ant social structures vary according to environmental conditions. This is shown, for the first time at a global scale, by research carried out at the Department of Ecology and Evolution of the University of Lausanne and published in PNAS.
