A couple of new updates:

 

• Formiculture can't seem to show all the pictures if they're in one post, so each subfamily now gets its own post
• Been relabelling, IDing and sorting all my specimens (including the ones still in ethanol) so there should be a lot more on the way
• Updated some pictures with better (i think) clarity + a shoddy little scale bar on the side
• I no longer have some of these specimens either due to giving them away or damage, so not all photos will be updated
• Changed up the labelling system so that it shows rough coordinates instead of just "Hong Kong" or vice versa

 

Enjoy

Running into the problem of too many photos per post again, might have to change it to 1 genus per post instead of 1 subfamily. 

 

Updates:

• Added:
• Leptogenys binghamii (worker)
• Leptogenys kitteli (worker)
• Leptogenys peuqueti (worker)
• Leptogenys diminuta (worker and male)
• Diacamma cf. rugosum (worker)

 

Also thinking of changing photo backgrounds from pure white to a light grey to try and see if it helps with overexposure and the minute details (such as the hairs). What do you guys think?

Another thing: made this (roughly) to-scale diagram of some leptogenys worker
