The current study is aimed at investigating the effect of edaphic factors on the distribution and abundance of ants in different habitats of the central areas of Iran, while considering the vegetation. During 2018 to 2019, 20 stations from four habitats, including deserts, mountainous and submontane, plains and rural areas and urban areas, were selected. In general, a total of 311 sample units were collected from all the stations, out of which, 32 species belonging to 13 genera, nine tribes and three subfamilies were identified. The biological distribution and abundance of species were argued by computing the physical and chemical parameters of the soil, such as salinity, pH, total nitrogen, organic carbon, calcium and vegetation. The present study has demonstrated that the calcium content significantly affects the species richness of ants, although the impact of this element on various genera is different. We found that increasing in the abundance and richness of plant species has a positive impact on the abundance and richness of ants. Our results also show that some genera are meaningfully adaptable to a variety of habitats. In Kahak station, which is an urban habitat, with enormous diversity, 14 species were found, while in Sadrabad Historic Karvansara, a desert habitat, only Cataglyphis lividus (André, 1881) was collected. Cataglyphis bellicosus (Karavaiev, 1924), as the most abundant species, collected from 12 stations, was the most dominant species.

营养因子对伊朗蚂蚁（膜翅目：蚁科）分布和丰度的影响

当前的研究旨在调查营养因子对伊朗中部地区不同生境中蚂蚁的分布和丰富度的影响，同时考虑了植被。在2018年至2019年期间，从四个生境中选出了20个站点，这些生境包括沙漠，山区和地下山地，平原以及农村地区和城市地区。总体上，从所有站点收集了总共311个样本单元，其中识别出13个属，9个部落和3个亚科的32种。通过计算土壤的物理和化学参数（例如盐度，pH，总氮，有机碳，钙和植被）来论证物种的生物分布和丰富度。本研究表明，钙含量会显着影响蚂蚁的物种丰富度，尽管该元素对各个属的影响是不同的。我们发现，植物物种的丰度和丰富度的增加对蚂蚁的丰度和丰富度具有积极的影响。我们的结果还表明，某些属对各种生境都具有有意义的适应性。在具有极大多样性的城市栖息地Kahak站，发现了14种，而在沙漠栖息地萨德拉巴德历史悠久的Karvansara中，仅收集了Cataglyphis lividus（安德烈，1881年）。从12个站点收集的最丰富的物种是Cataglyphis bellicosus（Karavaiev，1924年）。我们的结果还表明，某些属对各种生境都具有有意义的适应性。在具有极大多样性的城市栖息地Kahak站，发现了14种，而在沙漠栖息地萨德拉巴德历史悠久的Karvansara中，仅收集了Cataglyphis lividus（安德烈，1881年）。从12个站点收集的最丰富的物种是Cataglyphis bellicosus（Karavaiev，1924年）。我们的结果还表明，某些属对各种生境都具有有意义的适应性。在具有极大多样性的城市栖息地Kahak站，发现了14种，而在沙漠栖息地萨德拉巴德历史Karvansara中，仅收集了Cataglyphis lividus（安德烈，1881年）。从12个站点收集的最丰富的物种是Cataglyphis bellicosus（Karavaiev，1924年）。
