Armyworms and loopers may be present during the spring, summer or fall. Armyworms and loopers differ from sod webworms in size and feeding habits. Armyworms, cutworms and loopers grow to about -1/2 in length, or about twice the length of the full grown sod webworm.
New World army ants (Ecitoninae) are nomadic group-predators that are widely thought to have a substantial impact on their prey. Nevertheless, quantitative data on prey intake by army ants is scarce and mostly limited to chance encounters. Here, I quantify the prey intake of the army ant Eciton hamatum at the contrasting scales of raid, colony (sum of simultaneous raids), and population. Like most army ants, E. hamatum conducts narrow âcolumn raidsâ and has a specialized diet of ant prey.
