Pics, size, location, habitat and all other things pinned to the top of the Ant ID section will help...

With no image and 0 information at all, it is an impossibility for anyone to even make the slightest guess.

Lemme just guess it's a Prenolepis. Can't think of much living in this Argentine hell that flies this early.

I take back my first ID. It's definitely Antus Questionmarkus.

Now just add some basic information, and you might get a species ID.

She's about 6mm and I found her in the Oakland hills in Northern California. I found her today at aprox 10 am and it was around 3 days after our last rain.

Prenolepis Imparis I'd say. They're still flying here too.

Actually a number of Formica species have made the jump to fly in the spring time out that way. I'm at a loss to say which, but the ant photographed doesn't quite ring Prenolepis imparis to me.

One of the more colorful (not solid black) Formica in the fusca group I think.
