Alate Ant

Alate ants are no less devoted and powerful than red guard ants, but they are slightly smaller in size and have delicate wings that bear them aloft. Alate ants secrete pheromones that addle the minds of the hive's enemies. A hive deploys alate ants as both defenders from aerial threats and as advance scouts.

Gigantic Ant

Source Pathfinder #174: Shadows of the Ancients pg. 72
When the heroes are particularly small, an ordinary red ant can pose an impressive combat challenge. Against high-level heroes, though, simply making a mundane animal very large doesn't usually incorporate the quirks and tricks that make high-level fights so satisfying.
