Summary[edit]

Description
English: Anthills at Glenberrow Many of the undisturbed fields and areas of common around here are studded with the anthills of the Yellow Meadow Ant (Lasius flavus). This small, brownish-yellow ant nests underground but creates domes of soil above ground as temperature and humidity regulating structures. The nest can extend up to a metre below the ground. The workers are nocturnal and not often seen unless a stone over a nest is disturbed. They forage among the grass and cultivate aphids underground on the roots of plants to feed on the aphid secretions.
