This order includes species such as bees, wasps, and ants.
Bees
The honeybee forms differentiated groups in social castes: the queen, the drones and the workers.
They live in highly organized societies and inhabit natural or artificial hives, in which they form honeycombs with hexagonal cells where they store honey, pollen and nectar, which serve to feed the larvae.
Wasps
wasps are hymenopterans of the vespid family, which form nests like small combs, on the ground, on branches and even on the projections of the buildings.
They feed on the nectar of flowers and fruit juices.
With their sting they can produce very painful stings.
There are wasps that lay their eggs in the larvae of other insects.
The ichneumon wasp bores into wood with its long, sharp ovipositor and lays its eggs in larvae that it locates inside the wood.
The bumblebee is a large, buzzing insect that forms colonies in holes and burrows.
Ants
Ants, like honey bees, form permanent societies of a complicated organization, composed of a fertile female or queen dedicated to laying eggs, and a large number of workers and soldiers.
Ants chew food and store it in the "social" stomach, which they use to feed larvae and other ants.
They have highly developed antennae sensory organs.
Its defensive weapon is a jet of formic acid that it maintains in a gland.
Ants generally make nests underground with a population of many thousands of individuals.
The fertile female or queen is dedicated to laying eggs and the larvae that hatch from them weave a cocoon from which the adult insect emerges.
The anthill is composed of many chambers for the development of the young.
Periodically winged males and females are born that leave the ant hills to form new colonies.
Typical species:
- Bee.
- Paper wasp.
- Ichneumon Wasp.
- Bumblebee.
- Ant.

| Isopters | Mouth chewing. Social organization similar to that of ants. Termes or Termites |
| Hemiptera | Superorder that includes heteropteros and homopteros. |
| Heteropteros | Mouthpieces choppers-suctors. Two pairs of wings, the first one in its anterior part. Bedbug. |
| Homopteros | Mouthpiece picador-suctor. Two pairs of equal wings, which sometimes are missing. Cicadas, aphids. |

The SEA is realizing a complete Catalog of the Aragonese Entomofauna that has already been partially published, where 190 families have been inventoried with 3012 species.

Auch Aragon genießt eine vielfältige und abwechslungsreiche Natur, in der Pflanzen vorbeigehen, Tiere, Geologie oder Landschaften erreichen wir ein fantastisches Bestiarium, das in seinen Denkmälern lebt.
Die Informationen werden ohne einen Spaziergang durch die drei Provinzen nicht vollständig sein, mit Abschaltungen in einigen seiner spektakulären Landschaften wie Ordesa, der Moncayo, Monegros oder durch Widerspruch den Ebro.
