Is it Messor? Who is an expert for ants? Gordon?
Here is link of my tiny wasp so you can compare how tiny she really was. You can use flower bud to compare sizes of ants and wasp.

Very nice ant shots Nikola. You got the focus right where it belongs. Rik Littlefield got me into using my ruler more often. If I cant`t get a shot with the ruler, I just measure the subject and and write it down on a piece of paper and put the scale in the picture afterwards It almost looks like there are three different size ants in the first picture

You are right Doug. It's not matter of angle, perspective or subject distance. The middle one was significantly smaller.
Thanks Gordon. Will search within my archives. I have not much ants photographs because they are beyond my macro equipment capabilities.

I found this side view but it's a little bit fuzzy.Gordon C. Snelling wrote:... Do you have a good side view of any of them?
Too long exposure time, maybe.
