'Fire ants' generally refer to ants in the genus Solenopsis, or Wasmannia auropunctata (the 'little fire ant').'Red ants' is a common name that is applied to a wide variety of red colored ants. It is occasionally used for 'red imported fire ants' (Solenopsis invicta), but also applied to red harvester ants, the 'European fire ant' (Myrmica rubra), and a number of other ant species. The usage is generally regional.
