I have noticed in the past that ant species such as camponotus novaeboracensis show a red line under them marking them incorrect when they are not is this something that can be fixed or is it too much to put in all the ant species or make the computer talk latin. :D

This is easily explained. It's not part of the forum, but the word filter of your browser.
I understand that they cannot cover every single word in existence and also not every possible name. Basically what you can do is go find the correct way to write that name / word and then do a right click add to dictionary. That way it will add itself. ;)

I would say unless an ant expert joins their team to put them all on the list, it's not going to change any time soon.
Doing some proper research is the best way to start an antcolony.

Trachymyrmex isn’t “incorrect” on my side, I may have added it to my dictionary.

It's not an issue. I just figured it out either due to my IT knowledge or skills or because I am just good at figuring such things out. :P

I really like this forum. Because it seems to me that the topic of ants is just endless. Ants can be developed as various games for example here. I am sure that you will be happy if you start breeding different kinds of ants. And each one is different. :D
If you like money try to play here at the website that i presented in my profile.

Ants cannot cross breed. It results in sterile queens, according to E.O. Wilson, using experiments with Solenopsis
