[1] Populations in North America are now considered a different, related species, Lasius brevicornis. [2] The queen is 7–9 mm long, males 3–4 mm and workers 2 ...
Male and female yellow meadow ants preparing for their nuptial flight. A mature ant colony seasonally produces winged virgin queens and males, called alates. Unfertilized eggs develop into males. Fertilized eggs usually develop into wingless, sterile workers, but may develop into virgin queens if the larvae receive special attention.
Because yellow crazy ants have generalized nesting habits, they are able to disperse via trucks, boats and other forms of human transport. [1] Crazy ant colonies naturally disperse through "budding", i.e. when mated queens and workers leave the nest to establish a new one, and only rarely through flight via female winged reproductive forms.
This is a list of ants of Great Britain, including endemic and introduced species.Compared with much of the rest of Europe, Great Britain has a smaller number of ants.The size and diversity of ant species in any area is largely determined by the highest summer soil temperature, and this being so, it is not surprising that the greatest concentration of different species is centred in the warmer ...

Antennae can also locate other group members if the insect lives in a group, like the ant. The common ancestor of all arthropods likely had one pair of uniramous (unbranched) antenna-like structures, followed by one or more pairs of biramous (having two major branches) leg-like structures, as seen in some modern crustaceans and fossil ...
Lasius interjectus, commonly known as the larger yellow ant, [1] is a species of ant belonging to the genus Lasius, and was formerly a part of the genus (now a subgenus) Acanthomyops. Described in 1866 by Mayr, the species is native to the United States.
