Wildlife Trust announces import-ant find

Manx Wildlife Trust says a new species of ant has been found on the Island. 

The ant, Lasius platythorax has been found at Rosehill Quarry by super volunteer Sue Harvey. 

She also found a new type of centipede and slug last month. 

The charity says shorter hairs on the insect's upper lip is the way to tell it from other ants.
