G'day all.

 

I caught this queen quite awhile ago but she sadly ended up dying. 14ish mm. Fairly sure its Campotonus sp. but unsure.

 

Cheers.

Definitely Camponotus sp. Looks similar to the US species Camponotus chromaiodes, but they aren't native to Victoria.


Hit "Like This" if it helped.

Mhhhhh... I'd Say Camponotus innexus/hartogi. Too bad we don't have the workers.
