The AntsCanada Ant Forum's

Need some more info, What country did you find it? How big is it? When did you find it? and maybe a clearer photo, as much info as you can offer even if it seems unhelpful.

Happy antkeeping!

The Queen is roughly 7mm (my test tube was playing tricks on me before) And she was caught in January on a hot sunny day.

Thanks for the help!

Added some more photos to the original link, The workers are about 2-3mm and the queen 4-5mm

Hope this helps! any ideas are appreciated

This queen has 9-10 workers and thought an ID would be useful

Hard to tell without clearer pictures, but I think Iridomyrmex Spp.

Ok, I will take another

Thx

I have recently caught an Iridomyrmex queen, and by the way she is acting and looking, I wondered if she could be Semi-Claustral. Google has proven unhelpful on this subject so I'm asking here.

Thanks for any replies and help with this.

Iridomyrmex Sp.

Thanks, I never would have been able to figure that out on my own, especially since I completely forgot iridomyrmex existed!

I found this beauty in my garden (it is currently summer here in New Zealand) and popped her into a test tube setup, she is about 1cm in length (10mm). I used flash in the photo so please let me know if I need to provide an image without flash. Thx https://photos.app.goo.gl/r82oJBlo0oh87Gjv2 P.S Sor...

I caught this little ant roaming my bathroom, I put her in a test tube and she has laid eggs. She is small, around 5-8mm.
