Please help.
 

Location Of Collection: Hoa Binh Province, Vietnam.

Date Of Collection: 13/06/2017

Habitat Of Collection: Running on grass, early lunch (10 - 10.30 am)

After collecting, I put her in the test tube and she laid 4 eegs the day after her captivity. 
 

Could someone please let me know the name of this ant. Thank you.

If you've enjoyed using my expertise and identifications, please do not create undue ecological risk by releasing your ants. The environment which we keep our pet insects is alien and oftentimes unsanitary, so ensure that wild populations stay safe by giving your ants the best care you can manage for the rest of their lives, as we must do with any other pet.

 

Exotic ants are for those who think that vibrant diversity is something you need to pay money to see. It is illegal to transport live ants across state lines.

Black lives still matter.

Thank you. 

Last night, I checked on her and found out that there are only 2 eegs left. Do you know why that happened? Did she eat her eeg? Is she the real queen?
