Wow, that's so cool! I wish I could get a queen but here in the U.S. they have laws against importing non-native species of ants.
BTW , you should try introducing one or more of those new queens to your already established colony. They are polygyne, right?
Another nupital, this time in my balcony.

Dude , i want to live in singapore. I love pheidologeton. If i were you , i would take all my testtubes and would run through the garden and catch those bastards

I read that there is a nuptial every two-three months, is that true?
when did they mate? (night, day? and season if they don't fly every two-three months)
very nice pics, well done! I would also take one or two :) can send you a very nice european ant lasius niger and flavus *lol* the same procedure you have on your balcony I have in my garden with lasius species...would prefer pheidologeton^^
Does somebody knows about the law in singapore regarding the export of ants?I just know that singapore is very strict with almost everything regarding the customs...
You are right the Singapore export it is very strict, but I have exported Ph Diversus outside Singapore before with no problem at all. I have also learn how to package them well from UneXisted :)
