A taxonomic survey on fungus-growing ants (Attini) was made at 14 beaches on Santa Catarina Island (SC), Brazil. The samplings were manual, in soil or litterfall, in the following habitats: sandy beach, herbaceous vegetation and shrubby vegetation. From 12 species of Attini (ten of Acromyrmex Mayr and two of Cyphomyrmex Mayr), the most frequent were Cyphomyrmex morschi Emery and Acromyrmex crassispinus Forel, collected, respectively, on eight and ten of the monitored beaches. Altogether, Sorensen's similarity coefficients were high (range: 0.59-0.80), in spite of the lower numbers of ant species on sandy beaches.
在巴西圣卡塔琳娜岛（SC）的14个海滩上，对切叶蚁（Attini）进行了分类调查。采样方式为人工采集，在土壤或落叶层中进行，采样栖息地包括：沙滩、草本植被和灌木植被。在12种切叶蚁（10种大头蚁属Mayr和2种凹头蚁属Mayr）中，最常见的是埃氏凹头蚁Cyphomyrmex morschi Emery和厚刺大头蚁Acromyrmex crassispinus Forel，分别在8个和10个监测海滩上采集到。尽管沙滩上蚂蚁种类数量较少，但索伦森相似系数总体较高（范围：0.59 - 0.80）。
