Myrmecologists the world over said it couldn't be done.

But Atta Girl did it. "Ants of the Desert" is a six-song medley about six different ant genera inhabiting the Chihuauan/Sonoran Desert in southeastern Arizona: Conomyrma (Dolichoderinae), Pogonomyrmex (Myrmicinae), Forelius (Dolichoderinae), Novomessor (Myrmicinae), Myrmecocystus (Formicinae), and Formica (Formicinae).*

The six songs represent six styles of music: rock 'n' roll, jazz, folk, latin, blues, and ballad. Below are sample MP3 clips of each section, but "Ants of the Desert" must be downloaded in its entirety.
