This page list all the published and pending pages of this site. Most of the photos and images are 640 x ### resolutions as I thought to make it a bit even looking and also to be more in line with the template's layout. But unfortunately I wasn't able to fit all into that size due to the limitation of a cheap auto focus camera (sigh, this is the same reason I don't usually photograph them in the wild - camera not good enough as I need to get to below one meter away from the subject and the focus mechanism takes more than half a second to focus by which time the targeted subject is usually some place else), some pictures are of lower resolutions but clarity and sharpness of the images and pictures are, I consider, still acceptable to see 'enough' details of the subject.
[2021 07 19] Please note that since this blog on these taxonomy class of social insects was first published in 2009 C.E., much improvement (i.e. redefinition to more accurately, which is implicitly that it wasn't before and probably also still, organize and classify, based on their theorized genealogies, the kingdom aka genealogical and genetic family of lifeforms of this planet), though not necessarily all are improvements, has been undertaken by the proclaimed and acclaimed Superlatives experts on this field of expertise. It may take a good long while, even as it has, for me to relooked at them and to update the various posted species to reflect all these (continuing) changes undertaken by the proclaimed and acclaimed Superlative experts.
Most of the photographs and images are clear and sharp but sometimes due to the glossy surfaces especially of ants, the auto focus mechanism just won't focus on them but focused on the background or on the legs and antennae. Of course glossy surfaces are not the only problem, blurry delineation surfaces too give the same problem especially so if the specimens are very tiny. One ant I had a lot of problem with was Calytomyrmex, I was just not able to get the camera to focus on the head especially the front to show the mandibles. Cataulacus too poses the same problem. Of course the fact that the subject won't keep still added to these problems. Additional problems are encountered when taking photos of the targeted subject in the natural habitat. Aside from having to move to within 10 centimeter of the subject to get a clear enough shot there are the additional problem of low light and subject mobility. Many times the autofocus mechanism will focus on a proximity object because it has a more definitive outline and color tonal contrast resulting in the shot of the intended subject too out of focus to be of used. For these reasons it is next to impossible to photograph certain types of animals such as: those that have good eye sight and quickly disappear once approached; those that will not stop moving; and those that have non contrasting color or surface outlines.
It should be noted that identification of species on this blog are not authoritative and are based on unaided eyes examination and sighting (without microscopic examination) of the morphology. As should be obvious from the low quality equipment (cheap auto focus camera) and limited resources used it would be impossible to precisely identify species that are closely similar due to the greater level of minute detailed examination needed. What this means is that species that are very similar in appearance might not be accurately attributed as the presented specimen image does not allow the separation. For those who are hairsplitters please consider all identifications to be purely "cf" only. Total length (TL) measurement are not definitive of the species and are provided to give the reader a means to estimate how large or tiny the specimens are. Further the measurement given by the author is based on live standing measurement which should in all cases be shorter (i,e, lesser) than dead stretched out measurement. Please refer to the various authoritative sources for the taxonomy keys to identifying the specific species.
Maybe one day (wishful thinking) I may be able to afford better equipment and have more time to document the various species in greater magnification and clarity that would enable these closely similar (in appearance) species to be differentiated and identified in the images posted.
The intent of this blog is to give the general interested public a fair idea (general representative appearance) of each genus and species that I encountered and observed in the process of my life in the pursuit of my life's passions. It is hope that readers who find this blog of interest properly understand that this blog is not meant to serve as an authoritative source of information on the subject species published and discussed but as the personal encounter and observation of the author as a non expert or non authority on the subject. If there is one thing that this author wants to make clear to anyone and everyone reading any work of this author, is that this author at no time position himself as anything but just a student of everything he encounters and finds of interest in his journey through this temporary life.
The intent of this author in publishing this blog is to make a contribution to the data pool of the internet. This is out of appreciation by this author to all who publish entertaining, interesting and helpful information on the internet, freely available to all who seek them. There is no other motive despite the evil slanders by all those whose hearts being full of lust and greed, are totally engrossed to elevate themselves sowing and perpetuating evil in the human social order.
Anyone seeking answers to specific issue please be specific to exactly what you want to know. This is written here not to put anyone down or belittle anyone, but in trying to be helpful this author can only answer the question posed, not questions that are vague (i.e. not posed) or questions that seems to be asking something that clearly was already disclosed in the post. With sincere apologies, the author may sometimes missed out on some questions posed. This is due to the author 'biting off more than he can chew', meaning undertaking more than he can adequately handle. Yes, it is a type of greed and lust, albeit one with good (i.e. helpful) intentions.

The heavy canopy cover on a typical primary tropical rain forest sees little undergrowth.
Here is a typical secondary or regrown cleared forest heavy with undergrowth of ferns and shrubs.
The Tropical Rainforest is a habitat teeming with life. A good alternative term for the Tropical Rainforest might be the Carbon Ocean or the Ocean of Trees because as the oceans support life throughout its depth, the foliage in the Tropical Rainforest increased the layer thickness of the surface platform to harbor life both above and below the ground surface.
So diverse and abundant is life in the Tropical Rainforest that many subterranean ant species do not store food as they are able to, on a day to day, basis harvest enough not to just feed the brood but to grow and thrive. In the ocean the microscopic plant plankton are the primary food that fuels the diversity of life the ocean, and in the forest it is also the plant and trees.
Even as both in the ocean and in the forest the beginning of the energy (life powering) cycle for life are the plants yet the most destruction that human have wrecked on this planet are in leveling the forest and polluting the ocean. Yes humankind are slowly but surely (and the pace is increasing and picking up) pulling out the carpet that support and sustain their lives from under themselves.

The Tropical Rainforest posts pages are general information on the tropical rainforest of Malaysia. The intent is to give an idea of how the tropical rainforest looks to an observant person tracking through the forest.

Little light enter pass the rainforest canopy to reach the forest floor.
The only time significant unfiltered sunlight is able to reach the forest floor is when a tree dies or when large trees fell in a storm.
Left alone over a matter of several decades a cleared forest will slowly regenerate and ground level vegetation will diminish as the canopy thickens. But unless these cleared forest sits adjacent to a fairly large patch of uncleared forest much of animal species diversity will never be regained even as many species of forest plants will not repopulate the once clear area with the biodiversity that have prevailed before. My camera is unable to do a good job capturing the true colors of the forest floor low light environment.
