Will begin shortly.

Note: If I do not mention a paragraph, then that means that it is perfectly fine and needs little or no improvement.

Behavior paragraph
Pretty good so far, but I would like you to change scientific-derived names into common names (example: collembollans -> springtail arthropods). This applies for the whole article. Great detail! Gug01 (talk) 17:51, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Is this also applied to the plants and trees mentioned in "distribution and habitat" where possible? Since you said it applies for the whole article and all. Burklemore1 (talk) 03:33, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes it does. Gug01 (talk) 13:37, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

Taxonomy paragraph
Pretty good but needs to be condensed. Gug01 (talk) 17:54, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Condensed, please double check.
 * Good work. Gug01 (talk) 13:37, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

Description paragraph
I have merged the small paragraphs with others. Is it ok now? I thought it'd be appropriate to just merge them rather than have small clunky paragraphs. Done.
 * Second and fourth paragraphs are too small. Gug01 (talk) 17:57, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * First paragraph is a bit too big, maybe split it up. Gug01 (talk) 17:57, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Good work. I like how you merged the paragraphs. Gug01 (talk) 13:39, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

Other
There are too few images. Is it possible to find another image of the ant? Gug01 (talk) 18:04, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
 * There are some on Flickr, but none of them can be redistributed. If I recall images aren't mandatory for a GA nominee though, but it's a shame there are virtually no free images of it in its natural habitat.
 * Actually I don't think there are any on Flickr at all. Burklemore1 (talk) 03:46, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Although images are not mandatory, additional images would have, in my opinion, enhanced the article. I gather from what you have said that there are very few or no images of the ant. In that case, then just forget about the images. Gug01 (talk) 13:41, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I definitely agree on that, though it's disappointing that insects in general receive little attention and those that do take photographs never release them or put strict licensing on them. Thanks for reviewing, I'll work on the plants and such even after if you have promoted the article. Burklemore1 (talk) 14:19, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
