nuisance ants and mound-building ants formigas pragas e formigas de montículos Explanation: Minha esposa é PhD em zoologia e especialista em mirmecologia - segundo ela é isso! Nuisance ants seria outro nome para plague ants - são as formigas que causam problemas para o ser humano e por isso são consideradas pragas, um "incômodo", vamos dizer assim. Já as mound-building ants são as formigas que vivem em montículos, assim como os cupins de montículo: http://www.cupim.net.br/cupins-ecossistema.htm https://insects-spiders.knoji.com/allegheny-mound-ants-what-... Allegheny Mound Ants are called this because they build impressive mounds Espero que ajude! |
