Silvestral?
[edit]What does silvestral mean? Google and dictionary.com didn't turn up anything useful. Lupin 03:49, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- means that they live in trees, presumably. What else could it mean?! ;) --81.134.132.242 3 July 2005 19:51 (UTC)
rename?
[edit]per Naming Conventions, shouldn't this be Ants in the United Kingdom or something like that? Segv11 (talk/contribs) 07:17, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
- I agree. Wynler 19:00, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
- i agree too but only because the word british makes me cringe. Marge4 19:16, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- If a name change is necessary, I think "Ants of the British isles" would be more suitable. "United Kingdom" only refers to part of the British Isles; ant colonies obviously don't know or care where the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic is. --Krsont 11:21, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Okay renamed to Ants of Great Britain. Jack (talk) 10:47, 18 September 2008 (UTC)- Renamed again to List of ants of Great Britain. Jack (talk) 02:34, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
List of non-endemic ant species introduced to Great Britain only has a small amount of information which would be better presented here. Jack (talk) 23:57, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
- Since no objection has been made, I have implemented the merge. Unreferenced material has been removed, you can check the page history if you can find citations for any other discoveries. Jack (talk) 02:34, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
What?!
[edit]- Strongylognathus testaceus – obligate dulote found only with Tetramorium, from the list, fifth from the bottom. What is an obligate dulote? Is this subtle vandalism or a typo or incomprehensible academic language? Even Google is stumped. I think a replacement or a link would be helpful. Richard Avery (talk) 07:47, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
