Field Notes

Description:

This picture is an example of an acrobat ant. Its reddish-brown color helps identify this species. Also, it's approximately 3 mm long, which is the suggested length of this species. Lastly, its heart shaped abdomens that come to a point at the tip, identify this creature as an Acrobat Ant.

Habitat:

The habitat of this ant is my family's property. This ant and other species live on this property. The habitat includes green grass, rich soil, brick walls, and many more. This specific ant was found inside my house, on the wall.

Great job! Can you give the genus and species? Description and Habitat are well done; in the future if you use a source for information include it at the end of the statement.
