Hölldobler is an international scheintist of excellence His experimental and theoretical contributions cover [[Sociobiology]], [[behavioral ecology]], [[chemical ecology]]. His comprehenseive work on social insects, mainly on [[ants]] delivered many new insights on maiting strategies, [[territoriality]], the regulation of reproduction, the population structures of superorganisms, the evolutionary theory of [[social parasitism (biology)|social parasitism]], chemical communication, [[polymorphism]], ant nests as ecological islands and the evolution of anmimal communities multilevel selection theory ([[group selection]]).

Bert Hölldobler (born 25 June 1936) is a German behavioral biologist and Sociobiologist whose primary study subjects are social insects and in particular ants. He is a co-winner of the Pulitzer Prize for his work on The Ants (1991) with Edward O. Wilson. In 1990, he received the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, which is the highest honour awarded in German research. He also collaborated with Wilson to write Journey to the Ants (1994). In 2008 he and Wilson co-authored their third book about superorganisms. He holds positions at the University of Würzburg and at Arizona State University, at the latter of which he is a Foundation Professor in the School of Life Sciences.

Research fields

Hölldobler is an international scheintist of excellence His experimental and theoretical contributions cover Sociobiology, behavioral ecology, chemical ecology. His comprehenseive work on social insects, mainly on ants delivered many new insights in

Videos and interviews

In addition to his published scientific papers and books, Hölldobler's work was the subject of the documentary film "Ants - Nature's Secret Power" the winner of the 2005 Jackson Hole Wildlife Film Festivals Special Jury Prize. His 2007 interview on the Ask A Biologist podcast program details his early life growing up in Germany as well as his interest in ants and writing.
