What is this species (not a queen)
Hi, I live in fountain Hills AZ and I found an ant colony outside and I wanted to figure out what species it is. My camera is kinda bad but I’d like to see if anyone can do it. I tried to look up what ants they could be but didn’t get anything to match exactly. They are about 2-3 millimeters and a red and yellow color.https://www.deviantart.com/terracrafter567

Re: What is this species (not a queen)
looks an awful lot like my Forelius ants "sun ants" but without a closee picture I would say it is also likely a Dorymyrmex "pyramid ant" (or possibly something completely different but i doubt it)
check out my journal on these guys for so neat pictures a stories. as well as the arduous task of differing the two generas.

Ok Thanks a lot I was trying to see what ants were around my area because they weren't too well known.
