dc.description.abstractEusocial insects, in particular ants, demonstrate great variability in their sociogenetic structure with regards to colony organization, queen number, queen mating frequency, levels of relatedness and worker reproduction. Within this study I perform an analysis on two groups of ant nests of the species Campo notus klugii, in order to investigate how the genetic structure may inform us of the sociogenetic structure of the species.en_ZA
