Also, why do you want this specific list of species?

It is illegal, here's a short from Antkit's website regarding ant supplements for their company:
International Ant Supply
We source ants from all over the world. All ants have the associated permit, quarantine and inspections before and at the point of entry into the UK.

We do not import ants from China as ants are prohibited by LAW OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA ON THE ENTRY AND EXIT ANIMAL AND PLANT QUARANTINE. For this reason AntKit will not purchase ants that may have been sourced in China.

I would've offered at least 40 bucks for a small camponotus or however you spell it.

sorry 😅 spelling mistakes, I had quite a few colonies of camponotus at the time and he is also my friend. I ended selling all my camponotus nicobarensis colonies I only have 3 queens left

$5 is ridiculously low for an ant queen. I think that a minimum of $20 would be better if you actually want people to help you.

In truth, ant shipping is very illegal and dangerous to natural habitats. Why don't you just keep the native species?
