Hi All!

 

I am looking for any and all wet or dry preserved ant specimens. If possible a queen and workers would be great! Please let me know if you have anything available! Thanks..

 

Edit: Just wanted to add that dead/dry specimens are absolutely acceptable as long they are in good condition. These will be used for identification/comparisons.

I might have something for you. Any species at all?

I think I can find you dead queen and "king?" messor cf. meridionale.

 

I got this pic today morning when i was collecting queens, maybe i can find some dead ants tomorrow.

Pretty sure he is looking for colonies with queens for identification/comparison purposes. For some species it would be fine, but with just the workers or queen I don't know how well that would work.

TC is correct. However, any and everything will work to be honest. As long as their "hard parts" are still there, they will definitely work for me. Thanks!
