I believe he means he would be willing to take any of the following, and doesn't want all of them.

It's starting to get cold here.... I suspect my Lasius finding days are over... (Until April and May when Lasius interjectus fly!) Even the Brachyponera are starting to slow down. Though they don't seem to really hibernate here.

Don't listen to him Antdude.  I'm sure that Maine would be just as good in terms of Formica.  And they have Myrmica rubra. :D

Hi there! I went on a 6 month or so hiatus, in part due, and in part cause of the death of my colonies. 

However, I went back to the Sierras, and restarted my collection, which is now as follows:

Aphaenogaster uinta, Camponotus vicinus, Camponotus modoc, Formica cf. aserva, Formica cf. micropthalma, Formica cf. manni, Formica subpolita, Formica cf. subaenescens, Lasius americanus, Manica invidia, Pogonomyrmex salinus, Pogonomyrmex sp. 1, Solenopsis validiuscula, & Solenopsis sp. 3 (new Sierra variant).

You should 100% listen to me because we can ship ants across Canada so we got stuff from all the different habitats :P

Don't forget Solenopsis xyloni, Solenopsis rchrti and Solenopsis invicta x rchrti!

Edit: And the infamous Brachyponera chinensis.

I am content with my native species. If people only took the time to observe them more, they wouldn't stare with jealous eyes at what species other habitats possess. If somehow I was able to get my hands on some exotic species, of course I would take it, but I wouldn't take the action initially.
