Bio Blitz Ants


Found these "pointy-butt ants" under a rock during the bio blitz. Neat looking little things.
UPDATE: Thanks to the nature list, these were narrowed down to the genus Crematogaster. It's too bad we don't have easily available identification guides for ants, there's so many of them, and they're fascinating creatures. Just think, a horde of females working together in cooperative effort without much interference from the males.
