What ant do you think is most wasp-like (I've heard that ants have evolved from a colony of ground wasps), and I was wondering that ants are most wasp-like in your opinion? I've got to say pogonomyrmex because some of them have the sting of wasps and they're pretty aggressive.

I keep:

Pogonomyrmex Rugosus journal
Myrmecocystus Deplisis journal
Monomorium ergatogyn Journal

And many Carnivorous plants such as:

Dionea (fly trap), Sarracenia x 'Fiona' ( American Pitcher plant), Nepenthese ventrata (Tropical Pitcher plant), and Pinguicula agnata x emarginata (Butterwort) 

 

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

All three genera of Pseudomyrmecinae are probably the most wasp-like Formicidae when it comes to appearances.
