Hi guys,

can you please tell me the species in the picture? And also if the ones with the big gasters are queens (if not why are the gasters so large?).

Region: Portugal (Center)

Thanks!

Plagiolepis sp. ?

And yes, the two big ones are queens.
Thanks! But shouldn't they be alone and looking for a nest? And are they fertilized? They didn't have wings
