Many winged ants present though not flying. Very active colony. Same log as 2020 sighting. But two new nearby locations see separate records.

Hi RAllen, I'm happy this is P. nitidus as the image of the queen is just clear enough to distinguish it from the queen of the undescribed Papyrius species in the ACT, which is very hairy. Cheers, Jon
