1. Specimen 1 was collected in a kitchen. Specimen 2 was collected outside on a trash can. There was an ant trail stretching from the trash can, across the drive way to a rock. Under the rock was a nest with hundreds of workers. I saw no brood or queens.
2. 4/27/15
3. Sunnyvale is located in a valley between a set of low elevation desert mountains, and low elevation coastal mountains.
4. Photos feature a scale in mm.
5. The gaster apears to me to be a reddish brown, with lighter colored stripes across the gaster. They appear to have long antannae and 1 node.
8. I couldn't see the nest itself, it was obscured by leaves and weed barrier, but it was located under a rock, right next to a cement drive way.

Is this attempt better than my last (first attempt) at an ant ID Drew? lol.
