Greetings!
Today I came across this neat ant nest(In low tree crevice), 90% beetle eletyra and 9% sticks and some dirt. Kinda gross to see so many beetle corpses…. Anyone straight to the point, I need an ID. They are a similar size to trachymyrmex, and shape, they are black, but I didn’t see any fungus, and almost NO brood.
I will attach photos and gather more workers tomorrow(I do have the queen but stopped as it was getting dark).
Ok, Photo time- I just need to know if I need to look for fungus or something like that(Sorry for over illuminating the ants, will try to find better photos of the batch, also they are smoky black)
