Jbotz (talk) 00:54, 19 August 2009 (UTC) (I am not the original author) I have observed that the atta simply close their entrances and hunker down when army ants come around. The army ant species that's local to my area (Bahia, Brazil) is rarely in the same area for more than 3 days.Reply

Pictures wrong?

edit

Looks to me like the Picture labeled as Atta sexdens soldiers doesn't show A. sexdens. I'm not sure what they are, maybe A. colombica (because the body is quite hairy) or A. cephalotes. The head of A. sexdens isn't really round like that and it has a horn at each end. Also it's not shiny. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.246.185.17 (talk) 15:44, 16 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Citations & edit for consistency

This article has a lot of great information, but is lacking in citations. There are a ton of statistics provided, but I don't see the appropriate references listed. I've also noticed disparities in spelling (i.e. “faeces”/”feces” and “fertilise” vs. “fertilize”) that could be edited for consistency. Ruaha (talk) 04:15, 12 September 2014‎ (UTC)Reply
