Termites are not classified in Hymenoptera because they belong to the order Blattodea, which also includes cockroaches. While termites and ants (which are in Hymenoptera) share social behaviors and some morphological traits, their evolutionary lineage differs significantly. Termites evolved from a different ancestor and have distinct biological and ecological characteristics. As a result, they are placed in their own taxonomic group separate from the wasps, bees, and ants that make up Hymenoptera.
