Re: Help Me Identefy This Strange Ant

Not sure of the species.. but it's posture and position in those pictures, coupled with the white "fluffy stuff" on its body screams CORDYCEPS to me! #AmateurOpinion

Re: Ant Identification - Australia, NSW ~Oct/2018

They don't look like the particular honeypot species that I'm familiar with, in terms of their coloration etc ... but those 'stripes' and the size of some of their gasters made me think repletes!? Aussie Aussie Aussie :)

Re: Hello..

I'm from Australia so I've got no ideas for locating them in your area... but there are sites (this one included) that sell queens and send them through the mail, incase you get fed up with the hunt! You probably already know that, but since you said you're new to this I thought I'd just give you a ...

Re: URGENT

:lol: I see what you did there #Subtle :lol: Thanks for the reply and Merry Christmas... definately not Myrmica... but Manica is a possibility... either way, both aren't native to my area and yet neither are the particular invasive I had it chalked up as... But I appreciate the input... I just hope ...

A question and.. depending on the answer, a suggestion

The question(s): Are there many verified myrmecologists on this site? And if there are, do they have any distinguishing features on their profile/screenname? Suggestion: Offer myrmecologists an option to verify their credentials.. and if they choose to do so, maybe change the font of their screennam...

Finally.. ugh.. unfortunately that's the only picture I have.. that pic is in focus (insert snorts of derision here lol), but doesn't do justice to the coloration.. it's like the first 2 segments were a tan-ie brown and its gaster was black! Any ideas?

Re: URGENT

Damn it... it says "board attachment limit has been reached"??? I only just joined today (but been following the YouTube channel for ages), anyone know if it's a problem with the site? Or do new people have some kind of probationary period or something?

URGENT

Please help me identify this species... no need for everyone to write "it's hard to tell from a picture" because I'm well aware of that... but any feedback would be much appreciated... I think I know what it is but I need some "confirmation" before I decide what to do next. Oh, and merry Christmas b...
