Hello everyone! I'm Otter and I have been keeping ants since 2012, I am very interested in photography and finding/keeping the weird and cool species from around the state. I can't wait to start talking to yall! Btw MA flights have already started, Camponotus nearcticus/caryae and Prenolepis imparis have already had their first flights of the year.

Welcome! You have an amazing collection!

Hi there! I went on a 6 month or so hiatus, in part due, and in part cause of the death of my colonies.

However, I went back to the Sierras, and restarted my collection, which is now as follows:

Aphaenogaster uinta, Camponotus vicinus, Camponotus modoc, Formica cf. aserva, Formica cf. micropthalma, Formica cf. manni, Formica subpolita, Formica cf. subaenescens, Lasius americanus, Manica invidia, Pogonomyrmex salinus, Pogonomyrmex sp. 1, Solenopsis validiuscula, & Solenopsis sp. 3 (new Sierra variant).
