Antkey is pleased to announce a new gallery of tramp ants from around the world photographed by the extraordinarily talented photographer and entomologist, Alex Wild. These fantastic live photographs show in vivid detail the natural colors, behaviors and habitats that specimen images often fail to capture. To view more of Alex Wild's insect images visit his photogrpahy website (www.alexanderwild.com) and blog (www.myrmecos.net).
Dear Antkey users, the site is currently being translated into Simplified Chinese, Bahasa Indonesian and Thai. The translations are being done on the live site, and issues occasionally arise. We apologize for any inconveniences this causes, and thank you for your patience. If you notice any issues that are not resolved within several days, please post a comment here or in the forum and we'll try to address it as soon as possible.
