ID please

Hi
Can someone help with identification of these two specimens for me please. I think they are both lasius niger but not sure. I found them in NE Scotland, UK around September this year.

Thanks,

PS. When i try to upload the two photos (95Kb and 50kb) I get an error that says "ERROR Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached".

You can use Imgur or Google photos and share the image as a link

They seem to be some kind of Lasius.

Hi SYUTEO thanks, that's what i think too but wanted a confirmation.

This post has around 8500 views but no confirmed IDs yet, any others with a more specific ID please?

Thanks

It's probably L. niger. Not super confident on this but it is the most likely since it's so common.

It doesn't look like Lasius Niger though... More like Lasius Flavus
