Found four of these queen ants during their nuptial flight.
They are black/brownish with two rings on their abdomen, I was thinking they were phedoile sp (I think I spelled that wrong lol),

Also will they tolerate more than one queen ?

EDIT- They are all 8-9mm

If they are Crematogaster, can they have more than one queen together?

Won't recommend it


Just a little boy that likes ants. I try my best to be mature and competent.
