Quiz Me!
Alright, so I THINK I've learned how to differientiate parasitic Lasius queens, (Thanks Batspiderfish ) but I need to see if I can do so without someone identifying it for me. So send pictures of any of these Lasius species without telling me what species it actually is. I will name the species and you will tell me if I was right or wrong:
-claviger
-latipes
-interjectus
-murphyi
-subumbratus
-umbratus
-speculiventris
P.S. Remember to send only queens, preferably dealates. Thank you!
