Uh that tube is more than a little wet.
Uh that tube is more than a little wet.
Yeah, that's a big problem.
As for species I believe it could be a Formica species within the fusca-group.
Yes, that appears to be fusca group formica, and that poor queen needs a drier test tube. It's a miracle she didn't drown already
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).

I put tubes beside the basement window. Not so sure whether that caused the water issue. But I moved her to a new setup.
