Lasius mixtus

This species nests deep in the ground often among shrub roots and under deep boulders, but occasionally also constructs mound nests of fine loose soil. Alatae fly in August and September and fertilised queens are thought to found fresh colonies through adoption by and  but actual recorded instances are very few or dubious. Dealate queens are often found wandering singly above ground in spring (Collingwood, 1979).

Identification

Body pubescence coarse but sparse. Body hairs short. longest gaster hairs less than one third maximum hind tibial width. Front tibiae and scape without erect hairs. occasionally present on hind tibiae. Length: 3.5-4.5 mm (Collingwood 1979).
