Scientists from the California Academy of Sciences are embarking on a project to take highly detailed digital images of every one of approximately 12,000 ant species known to science. (Pictured here is Cataulacus intrudens of Madagascar)

I hate ants BIG TIME!!! Tons of them in my garden... much prefer to have our little black ones though than some of the monsters out there.
That said, ants are completely fascinating social creatures, and the images are fantastic. |

Love the toupee on the leaf-cutter ant. Amazing images. But 30 different images? Not legal on DPC...
I find both bees and ants fascinating. Incredible social structure. |
