I have recently found this girl and am having trouble identifying myself. Sorry, the pictures may be a bit blurry, she is hard to focus on, if they are too bad to identify I can try round 2, just let me know. One day I hope to be able to identify all the ants from the area.

Re: Queen Ant Identification
Male ant. Too hard to identify from the pictures. You'll want to take them in better light.

How can you tell it's a male I didn't even think about that? I will try to get and post better pictures tomorrow.Batspiderfish wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 11:09 pmMale ant. Too hard to identify from the pictures. You'll want to take them in better light.
