What Do Tiny Red Ants Look Like?
“I’m Mike Quinn, and been an entomologist for twenty years, and we’re here at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower center, in Austin, Texas, talking about what do tiny red ants look like. Tiny red ants refers to a a wide variety of small species. It’s basically a common name, a general description, and so it doesn’t apply to any one species. Ants have constricted bodies in their thoracic region, with bulbous heads and and abdomens, and generally have elbowed or geniculate antennae, and these are features that we can see under close examination. But, ants are everywhere in the environment, and even in or houses, and they’re social insects with a a caste system, and queens, and workers, and and and larvae.
