Summary

Description

Seen on the slickrock near the rim overlook, Capitol Reef National Park..


This may be a Formica obscuripes Thatching Ant mound. I have seen this same mound over in the Yakima area on Umtanum Ridge. www.flickr.com/photos/brewbooks/2465729799/

A short video www.flickr.com/photos/brewbooks/4849481045/ I took, really shows how active these are. These ants have a distinctive body, half red, half black.
