Re: What species of Myrmica
Myrmica cannot be identified to the species without use of a microscope. Myrmica rubra is one exception, but we would need to see the lobes on the front of the head, near the antennal sockets.
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.
