    Got an ID correction - I had the genus correct, but not the species. Posted 5 years ago

Nice finding! Ants are so difficult for me to identify! I think I have only 1 or 2 species identified. Posted 5 years ago

  Thanks, Jivko! They are so difficult to ID, I agree. I am getting this ID checked though, in case I'm incorrect. Posted 5 years ago

  Agreed. In my experience, ant experts tend to be in old-style bulletin board forums. They are usually ant keepers, that's why they know so much about them. Posted 5 years ago

    Haha, so true. I posted it on BG, so hopefully some myrmecophile will stumble upon it and help me out. Posted 5 years ago
