==Summary==
The absence of aggression within Argentine ant colonies was first reported in 1913 by Newell & Barber, who noted “…there is no apparent antagonism between separate colonies of its own kind”.  Later studies showed that these “supercolonies” extend across hundreds or thousands of kilometers in different parts of the introduced range, first reported in California in 2000, then in Europe in 2002, Japan in 2009, and Australia in 2010. Several subsequent studies used genetic, behavioral, and chemical analyses to show that introduced supercolonies on separate continents actually represent a single global supercolony.
