Extended phenotypes and foraging restrictions: ant nest entrances and resource ingress in leaf-cutting ants
Several factors may restrict the acquisition of food to below the levels predicted by the optimization theory. However, how the design of structures that animals build for foraging restricts the entry of food is less known. Using scaling relationships, we determined whether the design of the entranc...
