Anyone with Crematogaster ants if you could help identify the species I would greatly appreciate it.
Caught July 31 North San Diego County California.
Size is approximately 11mm.
Pupae do not have cocoons.
Workers “appear” to have heart-shaped gasters

Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.

No, I rarely see Crematogaster colonies, so I am not too familiar with them.RyuujinOsama wrote: ↑Thu Sep 29, 2022 9:15 amThanks for the confirmation. Do you happen to know the species?
