Re: Lasius
I still can't see very well, but she looks like either Formica podzolica or Formica glacilais.

Re: Lasius
I wanna see the shininess on the third plate of her gaster. Since there is silvery pubescence on the second tergite, we at least know that she isn't from the fusca complex of the fusca group (i.e. Formica subaenescens, which is what everybody has been mistaking for Formica fusca).
