Abstract
Abstract. 1. Data on ant distribution on the various blocks of cocoa studied at Gambari Experimental Station shows a clear mosaic of ant colonies. Distribution maps and analyses of associations between common species are given.2. Surveys of ant populations on kola, cashew, coffee, oil palm, plantain and indigenous forest trees revealed dominance by the same ant species as occur on cocoa.3. The adundance of any particular dominant ant species is shown to be related mainly to the habitat provided by a specific tree crop.4. The potential utilization of ants as biological control agents is discussed.
