Undergraduate Peer Review (Washington University in St. Louis The behavior section is highly informative, and I only made a few grammatical corrections. Perhaps, a small clarification on the comparison of the sex ratio between P. annularis and P. exclamans would be useful. Overall, very strong work on this section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gschalet (talk • contribs) 01:50, 11 October 2013 (UTC)--] (]) 02:06, 11 October 2013 (UTC)gschalet Undergraduate Peer Review (Washington University in St. Louis The behavior section is highly informative, and I only made a few grammatical corrections., I would suggest adding citations for both the relatedness section and kin altruism section in order to elevate this article to “Good Article” status.

Worker... or a queen?

On the caption of the first figure, it says it depicts a worker. Deciding from the shape (and colour) of the specimen's thorax and size of it's abdomen, I'm pretty sure it's a queen, though. --Mosher81 (talk) 06:35, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

Agreed and changed.--FUNKAMATIC ~talk 22:43, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Merged Camponotus_saundersi

Inch

Carpenter ants are large (¼–1 in)

I know this is English wiki, but many people not from Britain use the larger English wiki, and I at least have no idea how large an inch would be. Could you add something like '2 cm'? Please? :-) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.171.7.38 (talk) 13:26, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

someone deleted the symbiont section by mistake

someone deleted the symbiont section by mistake

Can anyone verify this ?

Routine vandalism. I reverted it. Art LaPella (talk) 18:08, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

wood

i know a quite a few ant speies from the genus "camponotus", which don't live in wood. do they not count as carpenter ants? בלנק (talk) 15:40, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

Behavior Section

I edited the behavior section. The section on relatedness needs to be cited.Kaijones5245 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaijones5245 (talk • contribs) 19:02, 5 October 2013 (UTC)
