Abstract

This thesis attempts to indicate some of the ways in which the ants of the campus of the University of New Mexico affect man within the small area of the campus. However, my purpose of doing the study has not been strictly limited by practical considerations. Until now, no systematic study has been made of the Formicidae of the University of New Mexico Campus. Since the habitats produced artificially by man on the University of New Mexico Campus have resulted in favoring certain species of ants not found by the writer elsewhere in the region, the present study is valuable.
