highered: Which is bigger Cataglyphis velox orCataglyphis rosenhaueri? (18. Jun 2008 13:53)

I know antstore doesn't have any of these ants in stock at the moment but I would like to know which species has the biggest workers? Cataglyphis velox or Cataglyphis rosenhaueri please?
Thank you.

I've wondered that myself, however antweb has no info on either, I am starting to wonder infact if velox and rosenhaueri are variations of another species, clarrification would be good :) although both species appear in our list @ formicopedia which was taken from antbase....strange!

I have a small colony of each and velox is bigger by quite a bit. :)

Hello GoliX and welcome.

Do you have pictures of your colonies ? Feel free to add them in the pictures thread. ;)

Yes they are about the same size.

Hi, yes I have a few pictures on my other computer, I'll try to get them on soon. :)
