Ant species found on Isle of Man for first time by volunteer
www.bbc.co.ukA species of ant has been found for the first time on the Isle of Man by a volunteer with a conservation group.
Manx Wildlife Trust (MWT) member Sue Harvey came across the insect, which is a known species elsewhere in the British Isles, at a disused quarry in the south of the island.
Local conservationists said the finding “shows how former industrial sites can become thriving wildlife habitats when cared for properly”.
