DESCRIPTION:
Messor barbarus is undoubtedly one of the most popular species among myrmecology enthusiasts. Native to southern Europe and especially abundant on the Iberian Peninsula, this granivorous ant stands out for its striking dimorphism between workers and soldiers, its ease of care, and its seed-based diet, making it an ideal choice for beginners in the hobby.
Their colonies can reach more than 10,000 individuals.
This product includes the ant colony inside a glass-plaster test tube, a mini-ant farm, or separately. The measurements can be 20-200 mm or 18-180 mm. It also includes a test tube with seeds and another with honey water.
