How to classify ants?

Today, we're diving into the fascinating world of ants — some of the most organized and powerful insects on Earth. Did you know that there are 5 major ant subfamilies that rule the planet? From chemical attacks to ancient hunting strategies, these tiny creatures never cease to amaze.

In this video, K will walk you through the 5 most common and ecologically important ant subfamilies:

Formicinae – The Acid Sprayers

Myrmicinae – The Largest and Most Diverse

Dolichoderinae – The Chemical Warriors

Ponerinae – The Primitive Predators

Dorylinae – The Nomadic Army Ants

You’ll also discover famous species like fire ants, leaf-cutters, and even “vampire ants”!

But evolution doesn’t always play fair — we’ll also look at the rarer and extinct subfamilies, and how they help us understand the deep history of ant evolution.
