Queen Ant Composite

So over the last year we've collected a number of images of queen ants as we've been collecting them. We posted a small collage on our facebook page during the week of Myrmecia queens and we thought it would be interesting to see a visual of the different types of queens we've found this year.

So we created this composite of all of the queens we've photographed along with a common black house ant on the bottom.

Species shown are as follows;

1. Myrmecia pyriformis

2. Myrmecia simillima

3. Camponotus intrepidus

4. Oecophylla smaragdina

5. Myrmecia fulvipes

6. Myrmecia pilosula

7. Odontomachus sp.

8. Aphaenogaster longiceps

9. Solenopsis geminata

10. Iridomyrmex sp.
