Re: Two questions
This is my first season and I have only found brachymyremex sp. and a RIFA queen. I find that I have the best luck a couple hours before the rain to an hour or so after. As far as a place to keep them... I have some in my garage and some in my air conditioned room (about 15 total). I find the ones i...

Brachymyremex Patagonicus
I caught about 18 Brachymyrmex Patagonicus queens the other day. As an experiment, I combined them in groups of 1, 2, and 3. Is this combining of queens a feasible concept for this species? I tried some research on my own to no avail. Any insight into the species is appreciated.

Re: Identity help - South FL - 6/10/18
There are two darker Brachymyrmex spp. in that area and we wouldn't be able to tell them apart from this picture. Is there a specific thing that I should try to focus on for a better picture? Sufficient detail to see the hair coverage on the body. This was the best i could get today http://i65.tiny...

Re: Identity help - South FL - 6/10/18
1000000% Brachymyremex Patagonicus.They Spin Coocons. I have five of these. I caught them all within about a 7 square foot area.
