D.) College of Graduate Studies University of Idaho (EEUU) / CATIE, Turrialba (Costa Rica), 2006 Atta cephalotes L., the predominant leaf-cutting ant species found in coffee farMON in the Turrialba region of Costa Rica, is considered a pest of the crop because it removes coffee foliage. I applied agroecosystem and landscape level perspectives to study. A. cephalotes foraging, colony distribution and dynamics in coffee agroecosysteMON in the Turrialba region. I also conducted field assays to assess efects of control methods on colonies of different sizes and to examine the efficacy of alternatives to insecticides. 2014-10-20T04:40:16Z 2014-10-20T04:40:16Z 2006 Tesis de doctorado 369318 https://repositorio.catie.ac.cr/handle/11554/4811 en info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess application/pdf CATIE, Turrialba (Costa Rica).
