Black ants
Are tetramorium the tiny black ants that you see everywhere???? Also all I find when looking for ants is black ants. Where else do I need to look
Re: Inquiry
Technically, Tetramorium Are Often Referred As 'Pavement Ants'.
And A Lot Of Ants, Are Naturally-Colored Black. Do You Mean Less Invasive Species, And More Uncommon Ones?

Re: Black ants
Where are you? Where I live, those tiny black ones are Tapinoma or Nylanderia. Compare the ants you see to Tetramorium and those other 2. Surprisingly, I only see pavement ants in woods.firestorm11 wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2017 10:06 amAre tetramorium the tiny black ants that you see everywhere????

Re: Black ants
Pogonomyrmex would be "harvester ants".
The basic premise is that common names like "black ant" are worthless.

Re: Black ants
carpenter ants are camponautice
Proverbs 6:6-8
Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!
It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.
