My $5 macro lens!
This worker ant is about 3mm. Found it under a pine tree in Rhode Island near a salt marsh. The third picture has a pair of propodeal spines. My guess is Myrmica.

Re: Worker ant 3mm
She has all the similarities as Tetramorium immigrans except that she is definitely bigger... the average worker for Tetramorium immigrans is under 3 mm and too challenging with my simple macro lens.

Wow that's some good photographie!

-Miniature Military(formica neogagates)

In search of new camponotus colony
