Anything can happen. For example, in Pedivikia, on the page with Katamenes arbustorum, there is a photo of Eumenes papillarius. I haven't figured out how to fix it - it's been hanging there for a dozen years. http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katamenes

I agree! Bloopers are everywhere. I also found outright blunders on the" Zinovsky " site, when the name did not go with the "picture" and on very good sites on tortricides, the genitals of males belonged to other species. I don't see anything wrong with that!
I myself sometimes use this resource for wasps, more for instructions on the distribution of species, and for ants only here! So it seems to me that "attacks" are unnecessary here. The person in the first post said thank you for your comments and said that they would correct you if you were right. Once again, you spread "politivism" with mutual insults!

Thank you so much for your support. I asked V. M. Loktionov to check these 3 photos and he confirmed the error. I'll fix it within a day. Thank you all for your help.

tell me ants living in houses ( as I understand Pharaoh ants), if ants running around bring in another house, they will settle or it's only working individuals??

Working foragers usually run around. If you bring them in, they will die pretty quickly. And everything. Sometimes it happens that females move from nest to nest along the trail with foragers. It's rare, but it happens. But they are immediately noticeable because of the size and hesitant movements. But even one female with a dozen workers is not enough for them to take root in a new place. I caught such females with workers - they never took root in the formicarium. They can settle in another house if you bring a family with females there. Families of this species have many nests with a large number of females. Because the nests of pharaohs can be anywhere (a box of medicines, a bag of cereals, a stack of bed linen, any cavities in furniture and household items...) then it is quite possible to enter them.
