Hi Redant408 and welcome.
Nice to hear that there are such nice ants there. ;)
Ive recently found a great website with lots of info and pictures of ants in the southeast, listed by state. For anyone in the southeast, its a great way to browse and get info about native ant species in your area. Check it out: http://www.msstate.edu/org/mississippientmuseum/Researchtaxapages/Formicidaepages/Ant.faunal.lists.htm
Capital0, thanks from really helpful link on ants of America :love05:
:badboys: wan´t interested in ants already in my 7, when I was in Georgia and Florida :sad05: [-(
Good link CapitalO. I'm not from America but i like it. ;)
Check this out: Odontomachus ruginodis aka 'the snapping ant'. They can actually project themselves into the air by snapping their jaws... very cool :D
Yeah. The movement of the jaws is the fastest movement in the whole nature....
in deed, i already saw some really nice documentary about them. (sorry no links of it, but look at the link from CapitalO ;) )
They have been introduced to the southeast, near to where I live. This would be a cool ant to keep in my new formicarium :)
that would be a very nice ant to keep, hope you find some. ;)
Hey...I'm American...:lol:
