Re: Queen Ant Identification
Awesome thanks. Only one is the 3rd one. It's not a neoniger. I have a neoniger queen and she's darker and about 3 times the size of them. Alsi I caught her in april-may not September. Is she a Different type of lasius?bugging3out wrote: ↑Wed Jun 23, 2021 11:18 am1st link is pavement ant also known as tetramorium sp.E
2nd link is parasitic ants not mature enough with your experience with ant keeping not personal
3rd link is lasius neoniger also known as garden ants.
Good luck!

Re: Queen Ant Identification
I have to keep researching.
Why did I even make a signature if I am just gonna say this.
Re: Queen Ant Identification
Hello, I just caught a small queen ant, but I don’t know what species it was, I found it in Wisconsin right next to Duluth Minnesota. I found it on a rock right next to a lake. Here is a picture, it’s a bit blurry so tell me if I need a more clear pic, but if you can, would someone tell me what this is? Thanks!

Re: Queen Ant Identification
You need to take clearer photos.
My current colonies:
-Miniature Military(formica neogagates)
-Black Hearts(crematogaster cerasi)
In search of new camponotus colony
[Have a look at antmaps.org]

Re: Queen Ant Identification
Anyone know what type of ant these are. Thief ants? There's one or 2 colonys in front of my house and I've been checking up on em regularly hoping to catch their nuptial flight and a queen . They're absolutely tiny. Like can't even see em from more than a 2 feet away. Also extremely aggressive to other ants. If one walks by they'll immediately bite and latch on to em. I've seen other ants with 4+ of em latched onto it. They're only about the size of "normal" sized ants head. https://photos.app.goo.gl/1VTCJtL2xDWcEMU46
They're not te best pics. It's hard to get clear ones since they're so small and I'm using a phone w/ macro lens but I'll try to get better ones if they're too blurry.

Re: Queen Ant Identification
So right after that last post I moved a cooler and found a colony. They're were a 6-8+ of em and were with a huge clutch of eggs and a few hundred workers. I caught 5, kept 4 together and one separate. One of em was a slightly lighter color then the others. Are they even queens or is it a major? Also are they polygamous or are they just infertile dealates who pulled theyre wings?? https://photos.app.goo.gl/NGP43oC9B9Tq5C1z8

Re: Queen Ant Identification
Wouldn't let me add pics to the post. Said I can no longer edit or delete last post for some reason. Here are a few better shots of the tube with the 5 of em together with workers and eggs I collected. Any idea What's up with the light brown one? Parasitic?
