Currently keeping:

 

1x Formica subsericea, (used to be polygynous) 15+ workers with 4 pupa (Idk why they still have)

1x Lasius umbratus, (Workers accepted) 5+ workers with host brood

1x Ponera pennsylvanica, just queen

 

As you watch your ants march, remember: every journey begins with a single step (or queen)-not just towards you, but towards a future woven by diligence and shared dreams - Me

If this queen was found in the same flight or obtained at the same time as the other queen, then it is most likely the same species. This queen looks a little larger than C. fragilis unless physogastric (the usual lighter color of C. fragilis can be mistaken as both species have a darker and lighter morph depending on where they are found). I believe this is just a lighter morph of C. destination but once again, I would agree with GOCAMPONOTUS on using the ID template as it is much more helpful.
