Moffett, "the Indiana Jones of entomology," takes us around the globe on a strange and colorful journey in search of the hidden world of ants. In tales from Nigeria, Indonesia, the Amazon, Australia, California, and elsewhere, Moffett recounts his entomological exploits and provides fascinating details on how ants live and how they dominate their ecosystems through strikingly human behaviors, yet at a different scale and a faster tempo. Moffett's spectacular close-up photographs shrink us down to size, so that we can observe. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Ants|xBehavior.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85005806 650 0 Ant communities.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2005020405 650 0 Ants|xEcology.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2005020406 650 7 Ants|xBehavior.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/810898 650 7 Ant communities.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1737735 650 7 Ants|xEcology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/810901 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMoffett, Mark W.|tAdventures among ants. |dBerkeley, Calif. ; London : University of California Press, 2011|z9780520271289|w(OCoLC)751795743 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=547375|zOnline eBook.
