Aphaniptera, or fleas; Lepidoptera, or moths and
butterflies; Neuroptera, as the ant-lions and

An extensive order of insects, including the bees, ants,
ichneumons, sawflies, etc.

species, the tongue, or lingua, is converted into an

mandibles are adapted for biting or cutting. In one
large division (Aculeata), including the bees, wasps,
and ants, the females and workers usually have a sting,
