Abstract
Ants can both feed on vertebrate carrion and prey upon other arthropods inhabiting corpses. An investigation using carrion-baited traps was conducted in three environments (rural, urban, and forest) in six municipalities of southeast Brazil, from September 2006 to October 2007. We collected 113 specimens of ants from the subfamilies Dolichoderinae, Myrmicinae and Formicinae. Bait and environmental associations of ants and potential forensic implications of their actions are discussed.
