Hello everyone I’m new here as you know and I started ant keeping last summer and I am currently keeping a Formica subsercia, solepnosis moleta and a couple of Lasius Niger colonies (sorry if I spelled some wrong) and I DO know a thing or two about ants but I am still pretty happy to have full access to the information about these wonderful insects over here

Welcome! Learning is definitely the key to excelling in the hobby, and this is one of the finest sources of myrmecological information you can find.

"God made..... all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds (including ants). And God saw that it was good. Genesis 1:25 NIV version

Formerly called AntsDakota, not to be confused with Ants_Dakota (hence the name change). You can still call me Adak.

Keeping:

Tetramorium immigrans

Formica cf. pallidefulva, cf. incerta, cf. subsericea, unidentified fusca group sp.

Formica cf. ravida, cf. obscuriventris
