Abstract
The Falkland Islands constitute a remote archipelago in the South Atlantic Ocean that is about 450 km east of continental South America. The invertebrate fauna of the Falkland Islands is poorly known, and thus far no ants have been reported. We conducted surveys for ants on East Falkland Island during the austral summer 2019. No ants were found during our surveys, such that East Falkland Island is one of few oceanic islands that lack native and non-native ants.
