User's notes

I noticed all these tiny red ants moving pupa and other things with wings after my Dad had removed his tomato plants from the soil. Not seen them before.

Hi Simon, I agree we should leave these at Formicidae - they look to me like Tetramorium or Austromorium, but they are hard to pin down without specimens. Jon
