Species for keepers who have already kept a colony: they need more specific conditions of temperature, humidity or feeding, but they are not delicate if those are met. Here you will find Diacamma, the jumping Harpegnathos, Pogonomyrmex harvester ants, the leafcutters Atta and Acromyrmex and Odontomachus trap-jaw ants.

Read the product page carefully before buying and set up the formicarium in advance. For a bigger challenge, see the expert species.
