Re: Stubborn M.rubra

A new insect is what I have heard of but there is something in general that I will like to make sure of or point out to you.

Re: Winter queen?!

I do not think avoiding your new queen ant to hibernate is a difficult or a likely task. It is because you will not find better solutions to your query since it is not much you can observe regarding them freely and keenly.

Re: Strange Polyrhachis ant strategy?

Well, that seems like a strange strategy to me as well. I mean, if you look at any specie in the world, they would love to interact with the opposite sex and produce heirs to their thrones. Well, I am laughing or smiling a bit while I write this but I think there is a major concern on your hands tha...
