Re: Welcome to the Camponotus Crew!
Kind of, but the gaster is not as layered, you know what I mean. Like my queen's gaster is smoother and kind of banded.LasiusSapien wrote: ↑Sat Nov 16, 2019 8:49 amyou're queen look like this?ArizonanAnts wrote: ↑Fri Nov 15, 2019 8:52 amCan someone please help me ID the species I posted some days ago?

The gaster will look smoother once she has had enough to eat. It is basically made up out of hard bands of exoskeleton that extend and retract over/under each other.

Re: Welcome to the Camponotus Crew!
So it is really pouring here in AZ. Do you guys think that if I go out tomorrow I will find some late fliers? If so, what species do you think I will find. I'm hoping for Prenolepis Imparis.

Re: Welcome to the Camponotus Crew!
I finally have a second worker for my Crematogaster colony! She just was 'hatched' (it looked more like the queen was taking the mom approach at "get up you lazy kid it's time for school stop fighting me", picking her up and rotating her, prodding at her ) around 2am, and she is now slowly moving around the brood area.
Now let's see if I can even tell the two little girls apart once #2 gets her darker color in...

Ant-keeping newbie! Currently keeping one Crematogaster Laeviscula Queen (Helena, with seven workers, and lots of increasing brood amounts!).
