Queen ant identification.

Re: Queen ant identification.
It appears to be a Formica ant.
Re: Queen ant identification.
I think you are right. Do you know if Formica wait until after hibernation to start a colony?
Re: Queen ant identification.
I don't believe they do, but i have 2 Formica queens they laid one egg each then the workers came, I feed them but they haven't laid any more eggs. So if you found it under something she might have all ready laid her egg, but i'm not sure.

Re: Queen ant identification.
Formica do not hibernate with brood.
An ants' strength can be rivaled by few animals compared to relative body size.
