EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, dated 1843, showcases an enchanting collection of ant species and their intricately built nests. The image transports us back to the 1840s and the early Victorian era, offering a glimpse into the natural world of that time. The photograph features several varieties of ants, including the Fuliginous ant (Formica fuliginosa), easily identified by their dark, shiny exoskeletons. Nearby, a nest of the Yellow ant (Formica flava) is visible, its entrance adorned with small pebbles. The Fallow ant (Formica rufa) is also present, with its reddish-brown coloration and mound-like nest constructed in the soil. Another nest in the image belongs to the Common Yellow ant (Formica emarginata), which is nestled on the edge of a stream. The ants in this species are characterized by their bright yellow coloration and slender bodies. Lastly, the nest of the Ligniperda ant (Formica ligniperda) is shown, with its entrance leading into a complex network of underground tunnels. The ants in this photograph are not only fascinating for their diverse appearances, but also for their impressive nest-building abilities. Each nest is a testament to their engineering skills and social organization. The Fuliginous ant's nest, for instance, is a subterranean labyrinth, while the Common Yellow ant's nest is a raised mound with a central chamber. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the natural diversity that once existed in the Victorian era, and continues to thrive today. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of the natural world and the incredible adaptations of these industrious insects.
