ORDER NEUROPTERA: LACEWINGS
Insect Interactions
There are innumerable interactions among the orders, and this is a dependable one to observe. Lacewing (Neuroptera) larvae eat ants (Hymenop-tera) that herd aphids (Hemiptera). Ants enjoy the sweet honeydew the aphids excrete and will even âmilk,â or stroke, the aphids for it. The ants are farming the aphids, corralling them, and even moving them to fresh plants.

⢠Pencil
