ID Needed Stockholm 22nd Of July

Hi There!

This beauty was found on the 22nd of July in Stockholm, Sweden between the hundereds of Lasius niger queens! She is 12mm long and black!

I do not believe she is Lasius niger as her Gaster is a tiny bit more elongated and she is faster! Her Thorax is also not as tall as My other Lasius niger queens!

Thank You for your Time!

Looks like a Formica sp.
First year of antkeeping, already enjoying it!

Currently founding:

Lasius niger
Lasius umbratus
Lasius flavus


Still hoping to find a Formica queen.
