Hello guys,I'm pretty sure this is a crematogaster in my hands but I want to double check.I found her at night after a hot day at the lowest part of a mountain with thick vegetation and some patches of grass.I have also found 3 more the past couple of days.She is light brown on most of her body with a darker tint on her head.She has a characteristic pointy gaster.She measures 0.9 cm.Thank you for checking this thread:))
