	abstract = {*[I compared the nectar-thieving behavior of 3 widespread invasive ant species: long-legged ants (Anoplolepis gracilipes), Argentine ants (Linepithema humile), \& big-headed ants (Pheidole megacephala) in inflorescences of the native Hawaiian {\textquoteleft}ohi{\textquoteright}a tree, an important food source for native fauna.  A. gracilipes was least likely to leave inflorescences unvisited \& visited inflorescences in higher numbers than both L. humile \& P. megacephala.  A. gracilipes \& L. humile visited more flowers in an inflorescence \& were less likely to retreat from a flower with a competitor than P. megacephala.  A. gracilipes was able to take 5.5 \& 11.3 times the amount of nectar than L. humile \& P. megacephala, respectively.  Thus, A. gracilipes may be effective at both interference and exploitation competition against other nectarivores, L. humile may be effective at interference competition, \& P. megacephala may be relatively weak at both types of competition against other nectarivores.]},

These population cand kill red endemic land crabs.  Ant activity was estimated by the number of ants crossing a 10 cm X 10 cm laminated white card on the ground in 30 seconds.  Biomass estimated by weighing and counting vacuum-collected unfed workers with undistended abdomens.  Biomass estimates did not account for brood, queens or alates.
