WANTED!
Monomorium samples needed:

Dear all,

I am looking for samples of pharaoh ants (Monomorium pharaonis) - dead or alive- from as many different localities around the world as possible, as part of my PhD. The species is introduced and found in and around houses in most countries. I am particularly interested in samples from India and Southeast Asia since this might be their native range. Any sample size will do; more than 1 individual would be good and 30+ workers in e.g. 95% alcohol would be great.
I am also very interested in samples of other Monomorium species and viable colonies for laboratory experiments.

Thank you in advance,

Yours sincerely,
Anna
