"an ant"
You've got to know how frustrating that lack of identification is to us!
 

Oh yeah, and, SUPER-stupid article, except for the little bit about the annual mating flight.

Worst ant-related clickbait of the year!  Gah!  Also had a dyslexic moment and got all excited.  That is an EPIC amount of queens though if that's what was really going on.  Man, what a haul that would be.
