One of the species is called "Dorymyrmex tener" which my auto translate keeps on changing to "Dorymyrmex to have" ... and to hold? 🥺 👰🏿
llewellyllewelly@sauropods.winNov 9, 2026, 1:10 AM@futurebird I heard closely related members of the genus Solenopsis (which contains the black and red fire ants) require statistically significant samples of both species, as the distinguishing characters have high individual variability. Alternatively, DNA sequencing.
