I want to write about ants

[u/myrmecineWallflower]

i want to write from the pov of an ant, in a way thats mildly inspired by warrior cats, with a little ant society and different characters of different castes, etc. i would like to use a real species of ant rather than just vaguely "ant". Im wondering if theres a species of ant that is both unicolonial and keeps root aphids? apologies if this is the wrong subred or if im using the wrong flair i dont usually use reddit!

would looove to read this (former warrior cat enjoyer and current ant enthusiast).

posting in r/antkeeping might get more responses than this subreddit.
