[Ender Ants]

I've found one queen in November, but I've heard that Winter Ants fly during the winter. Does anyone know any other species that fly late, other than the Winter Ant?

You got that backwards. P. Imparis fly early in the spring. Some of the latest species to fly I see are lasius and myrmica sp.

Oh, my bad. Thank you for correcting that for me!

It depends on the location. At least here in Texas, I've seen flights of a handful of species the entire year -- even in the middle of December.

I doubt areas with a more substantial winter have many flights later than maybe September or October.

Well in December here, we have a few feet of snow on the ground.

Does anyone know if prenelopis imparis fly in Maryland and at about what time do they fly?
