Technomyrmex albipes

6/15/08
Captured Technomyrmex albipes queen (Florida's most common pest ant)
last night. This morning she has already laid an egg.
6/16/08
Looks like she has around 20 eggs now

She now has about 30 eggs, I didn't feel like waiting longer so I captured some
pupae from a wild colony. It should take 2-3 weeks for them to hatch...

Well, she didn't make it
A fungus had infected her and her head split!
Her eyes turned white and now there is a white stick of fungus
sticking out of her head.
Creepy!
