Effect of polyethylene microplastics on the overwintering and nesting behaviour of the common field ant, Lasius neoniger dataset
Summary
This dataset documents the effects of polyethylene microplastic exposure on the overwintering and nesting behavior of the common field ant Lasius neoniger. The laboratory trials on whole colonies investigated how microplastic contamination in soil affects ant behavior and mortality during critical life stages.
Dataset related to the effects of microplastic exposure on Lasius neoniger overwintering and nesting behaviour of the common field ant, Lasius neoniger (Emery) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae). This research investigates the impact of polyethylene microplastics on Lasius neoniger behaviour and mortality during overwintering and nesting. These trials were conducted under laboratory conditions on whole colonies of Lasius neoniger.
