I just caught in Oregon a queen that I believe to be a camponotus pennsylvanicus though I'm not 100% sure. If I sent you a pic could you identify?

The 1st one is pavement ants right? Are they smaller then the camponotus? I actually don't know much about pavement ants.

Hello! Just wanted to drop a line to say that I'm interested. I'm a first timer, recently had a swing and a miss, and I'm gonna try again after hearing a tip (actually from Kahldris here; hello again my dude!) about a nuptial flight on Tuesday. Please keep me posted on your availability, and I will do my best to get back to you with an update by Monday, the 17th. If you have buyers before then and sell out, no worries. Business is business.

tetramorium caespitum queens $30

camponotus pennsylvanicus with mature brood $65

 

Tetramorium caespitum is not currently known to exist in Oregon. I'm assuming you meant Tetramorium immigrans?

I am also concerned about your C. pennsylvanicus ID as there are a number of easily-mistakable species in Oregon that are significantly more common.


Currently Keeping:
Trachymyrmex septentrionalis

Pheidole pilifera

Forelius sp. (Monogynous, bicolored) "Midwestern Forelius"
Crematogaster cerasi

Pheidole bicarinata

Aphaenogaster rudis

Camponotus chromaiodes

Formica sp. (microgena species)

Nylanderia cf. arenivega

You are correct after closer inspection they are immigrans.

also, you need to accurately show your location in your profile to buy or sell ants.

Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. -Proverbs 6: 6-8

If you don’t have any luck with a local ants emporium has multiple species for sale I’m sure he’s got something for Oregon.
