I'm seeing that the hairy, normally brown Technomyrmex spp. can have blonde color morphs. I am still thinking about this one, but my gut is telling me Technomyrmex.

Lol! Well, thanks alot for the help man. I always have a hard time ID-ing ants in my country as out there isn't much forums are familiar with Asian ants. The only one forum I found is from Taiwan.

I've kept Tapinoma sessile and the first queen seems to have too big of a gaster and she seems too fat in general. Even the Tapinoma sessile queens in large colonies weren't bloated with eggs or food.

The first post of the first queen she isn't fed at all for months. While the second post of her, I fed her honey, so maybe that's why it is bloated. I have been search on the web, don't really seem to find any sp close to her, other than tapinoma melanocephalum.

Will the photo of the workers help in ID the sp? If so then I will take some photo of it.

What beautiful ants! (I feel like that must be read in an old Jewish lady voice. "Oh my gawd, yaw ants are so beautiful!")

Thanks.

Anyway, it rained yesterday and I caught few more of this sp of queen, but they more much darker than my first queen in this post. Should wait till the first nantic came and we will know what sp she is.
