I caught these Ants this summer, fun little ants. My favorite is the Ponera which I just noticed had a worker eclose, a cute little callow to say the least, I don't know how long ill be able to keep them I was collecting her with the intent of putting her in alcohol, but I just couldn't, so ill have to figure out how to raise her.

Some of the Formica, which isnt neogagates, i think its a close relative Formica lasioides.
