Hello! Could you help me IDing this ant queen?
Day and time of catch: 27.07.2017 about 6 - 8 PM
Found: Under a rock on a dirt road roadside.
Length: 5mm
My thoughts: Probably Myrmica, cause they fly about this time and according to pictures it looks like Myrmica Rubra!

These are all links to one picture. You won't be able to ID to the species via photograph if she is Myrmica.
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.
