Collection, of 124 colonies from Bahia, Brazil, between January 2003 \& January 2004, revealed that ergatoid males \& a few female sexuals were produced throughout the year.  Female sexual production peaked in April 2003, \& was followed by a significant decline in colony size, presumably due to colony fragmentation or budding.  Not a single winged male was found, suggesting that in this population, they are indeed reared only under particularly stressful conditions, as previously observed in the laboratory.]},
