Godzilla thread

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

Species identification will require microscopy and a bit of luck, especially for the western species.

For California Stenamma, it's more of close your eyes and throw a dart at a board full of the numerous morphotaxa and nominal taxa. :lol:
