Formica sanguinea fonde-t-elle une nouvelle colonie ?","Une reine seule y parvient rarement. Dans la nature, les colonies se propagent par fission, ou bien une jeune reine pénètre dans le nid d'une espèce hôte du groupe fusca, s'empare d'une partie du couvain, et la reine hôte est éliminée. Lors d'essais en laboratoire, une reine n'a fondé une colonie de manière indépendante que lorsque plusieurs reines étaient logées ensemble, et la prise de contrôle de jeunes colonies hôtes, ou l'adoption par elles, a mieux fonctionné qu'avec des colonies matures. C'est pourquoi les éleveurs démarrent les reines avec des nymphes hôtes et de jeunes ouvrières hôtes.",{"question":281,"answer":282},"Formica sanguinea a-t-elle besoin de ses esclaves pour survivre ?","Non. C'est une esclavagiste facultative : une colonie peut donc vivre sans auxiliaires, et là où elle a éliminé toutes les autres Formica des environs, on trouve des colonies de sanguinea pures, en général avec beaucoup de petites ouvrières qui jouent le rôle de nourrices. Dans les colonies mixtes, les auxiliaires sont pleinement acceptées, car les ouvrières de sanguinea leur transmettent leur propre odeur comme étiquette de reconnaissance.",{"question":284,"answer":285},"Que devient la colonie hôte pendant une razzia de Formica sanguinea ?","Des éclaireuses repèrent le nid visé, puis les pillardes emportent les nymphes, dont certaines sont élevées comme auxiliaires et d'autres mangées. Les ouvrières qui se défendent sont tuées, tandis que celles qui restent immobiles sont souvent ignorées. Dans un formicarium, une petite colonie hôte peut avoir disparu dès le lendemain matin : les éleveurs ne relient donc que des colonies qu'ils peuvent sacrifier.","De grandes ouvrières à l'avant de la tête et au thorax d'un rouge vif, au gaster d'un noir brunâtre foncé et avec une nette échancrure au milieu du clypeus.
