A Salutation to the small Myrmica colony that died in my care

Let us know of your ant colonies or queens that have passed away. We will grieve together but will also learn why your ants may not have succeeded.

A Salutation to the small Myrmica colony that died in my care

She had 2 workers and no brood, and were flooded in their test tube. They were captured under a sandbag, so maybe they were trying to dig in the cotton and broke the dam. But at least I captured another colony of the same species that is much larger!
