	Myrmica Kotokui ''Myrmica kotokui'' ( ja, shiwa-kushike-ari) is a species of ant of the genus ''Myrmica''. This species closely resembles the Europe Europe is a large peninsula conventionally considered a continent in its own right because of its great physical size and the weight of its history and traditions.

Onoyama (1989) suggested that it might best be treated as a subspecies of ''M. ruginodis''.

picture info	Myrmica ''Myrmica'' is a genus of ants within the subfamily Myrmicinae. It is widespread throughout the temperate regions of the Holarctic and high mountains in Southeast Asia. The genus consists of around 200 known species and additional subspecies, although this figure is likely to rise as soon as the Chinese and Nearctic fauna lists are revised. Inquilines The genus contains a number of inquiline species (commensal symbionts), other ''Myrmica'' species that manage to invade the nest of their host. Subsequently, they use hormones to manipulate the host colony in such a way that eggs of the host queen develop into workers, and parasite brood into sexuals. Hence, the parasite is not able to sustain a colony of its own, but uses host resources instead. Similarly, larvae of the butterfly genus '' Maculinea'' (a junior synonym of ''Phengaris'', family Lycaenidae) and of the southern armyworm, live inside ''Myrmica'' nests where they are either directly fed by ants or prey upon ant broo ...

Europe is also considered a Continent#Subcontinents, subcontinent of Eurasia and it is located entirely in the Northern Hemisphere and mostly in the Eastern Hemisphere. Comprising the westernmost peninsulas of Eurasia, it shares the continental landmass of Afro-Eurasia with both Africa and Asia. It is bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Mediterranean Sea to the south and Asia to the east. Europe is commonly considered to be Boundaries between the continents of Earth#Asia and Europe, separated from Asia by the drainage divide, watershed of the Ural Mountains, the Ural (river), Ural River, the Caspian Sea, the Greater Caucasus, the Black Sea and the waterways of the Turkish Straits.

	Myrmica Ruginodis ''Myrmica ruginodis'' is a species of ant that lives in northern parts of Europe and Asia. It is very similar to '' M. rubra'', but has a more northerly and higher-altitude distribution. Overwintering larvae may become either workers or queen ants, with up to 20 queens living in a colony of up to 2,500 individuals. Two subspecies are recognised, differing in the relative size of the queen. Description There is a close resemblance between ''Myrmica ruginodis'' and ''Myrmica rubra'', another common species across much of Eurasia. They differ in the shape of the base of the antennae, which are curved in ''M. ruginodis'' and sharply angled in ''M. rubra'', and in the spines projecting from the back of the thorax – in ''M. ruginodis'', these are as long as the distance between their tips, while in ''M. rubra'', they are shorter. Distribution and ecology ''Myrmica ruginodis'' is found across the northern Palaearctic region, at higher altitudes and latitudes than '' M. rubra''. Its r ...

picture info	Ecological Entomology The Royal Entomological Society is devoted to the study of insects. Its aims are to disseminate information about insects and improving communication between entomologists. The society was founded in 1833 as the Entomological Society of London. It had many antecedents beginning as the Society of Entomologists of London. History The foundation of the society began with a meeting of "gentlemen and friends of entomological science", held on 3 May 1833 in the British Museum convened by Nicholas Aylward Vigors with the presidency of John George Children. Those present were the Reverend Frederick William Hope, Cardale Babington, William Yarrell, John Edward Gray, James Francis Stephens, Thomas Horsfield, George Thomas Rudd and George Robert Gray. Letters of Adrian Hardy Haworth, George Bennett and John Curtis were read where they expressed their regrets to be unable to attend the meeting. They decided that a society should be created for the promotion of the science of entomolog ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
