What ant do you think is most wasp-like (I've heard that ants have evolved from a colony of ground wasps), and I was wondering that ants are most wasp-like in your opinion? I've got to say pogonomyrmex because some of them have the sting of wasps and they're pretty aggressive.

I keep:

(angry) Pogonomyrmex Rugosus,
(stubborn) Myrmecocystus Deplisis
Tetramorium Immigrans
Monomorium Minimum

And many Carnivorous plants such as:

Dionea (fly trap)

Sarracenia x 'Fiona' ( American Pitcher plant)

Nepenthese ventrata (Tropical Pitcher plant

Pinguicula agnata x emarginata (Butterwort)

All three genera of Pseudomyrmecinae are probably the most wasp-like Formicidae when it comes to appearances.
