Abstract
(1) The resource utilization of two species of Leptomyrmex was observed (i.e. distribution of nests, foraging territories, colony size, items collected, daily activity patterns) in a Papua New Guinean montane rainforest. (2) There was little temporal but some spatial separation in activity between the two species. The composition of items carried to the nest differed. Leptomyrmex lugubris displaced L. fragilis from nest sites without fighting and contact between individuals was avoided.
