“…However, in social insects, not only individuals can behave consistently, but also entire colonies can show stable characteristic behavioural differences (Bengston & Jandt, 2014; Jandt et al, 2014; Pinter‐Wollman, 2012; Wright et al, 2019) and hence can be said to have a collective or colony personality. This colonial level consistency might be important because in highly social organisms like eusocial insects, natural selection acts at the colony level (Blight, Albet Díaz‐Mariblanca, Cerdá, & Boulay, 2016; Bockoven, Wilder, & Eubanks, 2015; Hölldobler & Wilson, 1990; Modlmeier, Keiser, Wright, Lichtenstein, & Pruitt, 2015; Pinter‐Wollman, 2012; Pruitt & Modlmeier, 2015; Scharf, Modlmeier, Fries, Tirard, & Foitzik, 2012). For example, in Temnothorax nylanderi (Foerster, 1850), colonies show consistency in nest reconstruction, relocation after disturbance, removal of corpses and in their aggressive behaviour against the intruders (Scharf et al, 2012).…”
