The day includes a presentation introducing the morphological features used to identify specimens to species level, and during the lab session, you will explore a wide variety of different ant species, including workers, queens and males.  Through a combination of taught classroom content and lab-based practical sessions, learners will gain confidence in using the identification keys and preserved specimens to identify ants to species level.
