الوصف: Global changes call for more nature-based solutions, especially in nature conservationinvolving ecological restoration. Current methods essentially based on civil engineeringare both expensive and costly in non-renewable energy consumption andpollution terms. The non-sustainability of these techniques is leading to the directuse of certain species to restore degraded ecosystems. Ants, because of their centralrole in ecosystem functioning and their occurrence on almost all terrestrial ecosystems,are promising candidates for environmental monitoring and such ecological restorationprojects. We provide here a narrative review of the ecological functionsperformed by ants, and we take stock of how ants are currently considered in passiveand active restoration. We then propose a trait-based approach to facilitate their useby practitioners in future restoration projects. We list and discuss both life-historytraits relevant for environmental monitoring and functional traits known to affect abiotic(physical and chemical soil properties) and biotic (plant and fauna communities)components.
