Colonia

Las colonias de P. rugosus pueden llegar a tener hasta 15.000 obreras.

Tácticas de Forrajeo

Los trabajadores de P. rugosus utilizan tácticas de alimentación en grupo que implican la creación de caminos permanentes (senderos troncales). También usan senderos de feromonas para atraer a otros trabajadores a áreas de disponibilidad de alimentos.

Interacciones entre Especies

Otras dos especies de hormigas cosechadoras, Pogonomyrmex anergismus y Pogonomyrmex colei, no tienen trabajadores propios. En cambio, viven en las colonias de P. rugosus y Pogonomyrmex barbatus (hormiga cosechadora roja) y esclavizan a los trabajadores para criar machos y hembras reproductivos para ellos.
