Invasive species: The Red Fire Ant

The fire ant originates in South America and is spreading - supported by climate change - over several contintents. Its habitats expanded due to the rising temperatures and general globalization to Mexico, USA, China, Taiwan, Australia and recently to Sicily. By reaching Europe the ant species is posing a grave threat to the local agriculture and biodiversity.
