You might be able to find Trachymyrmex septentrionalis if you are lucky. They collect herbivorous insect droppings to feed their fungi.
Otherwise, there is Lasius umbratus, which will sometimes use fungus as a cartonous building material.

If you enjoy my expertise and identifications, please do not put wild populations at risk of disease by releasing pet colonies. We are responsible to give our pets the best care we can manage for the rest of their lives.
