Hi there,i was hopeing someone could tell me what species this is.I think it maybe solenopsis sp but not sure

[miszt]

Some kind of Solenopsis i think to, or possibly phiedole, hard to say without a good side shot and face shot, where did you find her?

[pyper]

shes from Israel,my friend caught her.

try to make workers.then you could more easily tell what species you got.

I'd also say it's Solenopsis (looks very similar to my S. fugax, but definitely it's not the same species). We aren't familiar with ants of that region, so exact identification probably will not be possible there, even with workers.

[ratgreen]

how did you get her back to the UK?

[pyper]

I ve not received her yet.Waiting untill she has her first workers then she will be sent to me throw the post.

I think that she's a Solenopsis, but she may be an other Myrmicinae too, like Tetramorium...It's difficult identification her, have you another photos?

[pyper]

I dont have any more photos

Hello pyper and welcome,

Yes i also think it is a Solenopsis species. Hope she arrives to you soon and in well conditions.

[pyper]

I managed to get an other photo,dont think it will help but you never know

[JimmyVe]

The only thing i'm sure of now is they are preparing for a neptual flight. Where did you take this picture ?
