Ants are important members of the community in the great majority of the world's ecosystems. In agricultural settings, these creatures serve vital functions, either as natural enemies of agricultural pests or as agricultural pests themselves. Ants make up a significant amount of the total animal biomass and play important roles in the ecosystems in which they live, acting as both predators and scavengers, as well as being responsible for the movement of soil. Unfortunately, many species of ants have traveled to new habitats thanks to humanity, and these ants have become invasive pests that pose a danger to both agricultural ecosystems and natural ecosystems in their new homes. In addition to this, it is common knowledge that ant colonies have complex social hierarchies. Ants have been the subject of research in a wide variety of subjects due to the importance that they hold to human health. Some of these fields include sociobiology, robotics, immunochemistry, neurology, development, community ecology, and the biology of invasive species. Understanding the evolutionary links between various species of ants adds a significant amount of weight to the need of conducting research on ants (the "ant tree of life").
