CORDEIRO, Rogério Soares; WUO, Moacir  y  MORINI, Maria Santina de Castro. Proposta de atividade de campo para o ensino de biodiversidade usando formigas como modelo. Acta Scientiarum. Education [online]. 2010, vol.32, n.02, pp.247-254. ISSN 2178-5201.

The field works is still a hard way for the teacher; however, they represent a major step for the study of biodiversity. Our country is considered mega-diverse but teaching this subject is complex. The objective of this study was to outline a protocol for field works so that the teachers can implement it during their lectures about biodiversity. The ants were chosen as study model since they are rich and abundant in most tropical ecosystems. Sardine baits were used in edible oil to collect these insects; and in order to obtain enough volume of biological material to base the discussions concerning the proposed issue three collection expeditions will be required, using 15 baits each.
