hi, about an hour ago i was walking my dog on the park, and walked right into a nuptial fly, i collected a queen to  ID it, at the same time i think i got lucky because there was a male attached to her, so i will keep her in a test tube, also how long should i wait to go back and collect more queens?, thanks for the help

Prenolepis imparis. You don’t need to wait at all if you want more queens.
