that's very interesting! Is the americanus queen and workers still alive? And what did you find them in?

I find T. americanus colonies in hickory nuts at the base of mature hickory trees.

The T. Americanus queen isn’t there so they were probably just raiding it. I found them in an acorn in prospect park
