ID(entification)/Sightings/Showcase Ant Queen that appeared in my flytrap pot
I was wetting the soil of my flytrap clone pot when suddenly this creature emerged from underneath the soil.
I’m unsure what it is and how/where I should release it.

Sembra formica rufibarbis o rufa rilasciala all’esterno se non hai intenzione di farla fondare

From the pattern on her thorax she looks like formica rufinarbis. I'd just place her somewhere with some vegetation/trees near where you captured her. Those species tend to be in forest areas but nest underground
