How large or small have you guys caught or seen Clarithorax queens, I'm talking about head width and scape length. Also is there usually variation in the shape of the thorax as in the cross section shape? A queen I caught recently is very noticably proportionately larger, but the scapes are not proportionately  larger; the scapes are shorter. Another thing I notcied about it is the shape of the thorax does not match that of the few other Clarithorax queens I have.

Take pics! I've never seen much polymorphism in the dozens that I have caught, except for some that are extremely physogastric.

I will take pictures in two weeks when I check on everything, along with the large one I also caught one that is noticeabely smaller than a "regualr" Clairthorax, it is proportionately smaller though. Another thing to note is the large and small ones were caught no more than 50 feet from each other.
