I have 3 unidentified species of queens in my possession and i need some help identifying xD
I come from hot sunny island of Singapore with a Tropical weather
I have them in this link, https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1L2q ... Ud0SXRuRmc
In the folder the queens are named 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0, anything with a .1/2/3 still the same queen
1.0 and 2.0 are like 10-11mm(or 12mm),
while 3.0 is around 15-17mm.
Thanksss xD hehe

Re: Identifying Ants from Singapore
I'm not sure which queens you were referring to in the album, but they all look like Camponotus to me.

Re: Identifying Ants from Singapore
There is a lot of ant diversity in Singapore, particularly with Camponotus, so you would probably need them examined by a myrmecologist with local experience to identify down to the species. That species might not even have a real name yet.
I was saying that the way your pictures were presented was confusing to me, and I wasn't sure when pictures of one queen ended and another began.
