Camponotus sp.[edit]
- Reason
- We don't have many ant FPs. This one has good DOF, lighting, EV and shows good details of the body including the hairs. The ant was about 9mm long.

Weak opposeComment The DOV is acceptable, as it is a very tiny animal. However, it only has one antennae. Unlike the other images of insects you have taken that have missing body parts, this one is the most distracting. I will have to think about this one... ZooFari 16:03, 8 March 2009 (UTC)- It has two antennae. One is folded behind the body. FWIW, we have other FPs of animals with missing parts such as this one.--Muhammad(talk) 17:17, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Quick question: is this one of the cases where the species could not be identified? MER-C 03:07, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
- While I've got your attention, same goes for Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/File:Tachysphex specie.jpg and Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Graphium Caterpillar. MER-C 03:49, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
- In all the cases species could not be identified because not much research has been done about these species. Those who identified them to this level, even asked me to send them samples of the species so they could further their research. SO IMO this is as good as it gets, and EV is definitely there. --Muhammad(talk) 06:58, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
- OK, fair enough. Returned to nomination list for further input. MER-C 08:10, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

- Weak support EV high (if the people who are IDing it want samples) and DOF pretty good, but not perfect for something so small. Terri G (talk) 17:19, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
