That is why their Family, "Formicidae", is classified under the Order Hymenoptera - which literally means "membranous wings". Taxonomy classifications make learning about ants and mymercology study easier because species classified within the same Family have very similar behaviors, anatomy and physiology.

During this time plants are still semi-dormant and the trauma of moving them is much less. If it is late spring and leaves are mature it is recommended that planting and/or transplanting is deferred until the fall, when the cooler temperatures and shorter time of daylight trigger a decrease in physiological processes .... read more...
