This chart shows different species of ants and when their queens have been spotted or they have been reported to have had a mating flight. It also has links to each of the species' pages (if they have one) on AntWeb.org, AntWiki.org, BugGuide.net, and AlexanderWild.com. If you have viewed this thread before, you may need to clear your cache in order to see updates done to this chart.

 

The chart can also be accessed directly by going to the URL below, or downloading the attached Excel spreadsheet.

Hello, I'm new here, I just want to ask, what is the meaning of the numbers and colors in the excel files?
 

 

the numbers show ant flights that took place in that month(over years of observation), and the colors represent the most commonly flown in months

[dspdrew]

The numbers represent the reports, and the colors correspond to the amount of reports.
