AntsDakota(the website, not the formicarium member) is in the middle of creating an ant wiki, and is in need of pictures of ant genus's starting with the letter A. Because of copyrighted material, and pictures will be helpful. We will include your formiculture name as a credit. Thanks!

Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. -Proverbs 6: 6-8

I'll try to grab some pics of my Aphaenogaster rudis and A. tennesseensis.

Thanks everyone! This will save a lot of time searching for non copy written ant pictures!

First, it allows us(me and AntsDakota and everyone else who is helping) to learn more about ants personally. Second, it is easier to read than ant wiki, although if you prefer antwiki, go ahead and read it instead. We are also going to have pictures of all of the ants, which antwiki does not have.

Surely you aren't planning on including all the species that AntWiki has
