These ants were found near Angkor Wat, Cambodia. 

 

Think these are Carebara diversa

Not sure about these guys. Some type of army ant it appeared. All uniform in size and color and looked ponerine.

 

 

 

 

This queen was found on the west coast of Costa Rica near the town of Samara. I'm guessing a Pachycondyla sp.

The first one is definitely diversa. I’m not sure about the second one though.

The second is a type of Army ant. Perhaps Lioponera?

I'm thinking something along those lines, but all the available resources I can find indicate they prey solely on other ants.
