Re: NC ant Identification help.
Either Formica subsericea or possibly F. argentea, depending on how long the antennal scapes are in relation to the length of the head (excluding mandibles). Formica subsericea has scapes which are longer than the length of the head.
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.

Thank you all! I think it is the Formica subsericea I looked at some workers of that species were I found the queen.
