549,90 869,90 

Myrmecocystus flaviceps is a monogynous ant species with a medium development rate. The queen measures 11–12 mm, while the workers range from 4–8 mm. They typically display a reddish head and thorax with a darker gaster. This species is known for its honey pot workers (repletes), which store liquid food in their distended abdomens.

They feed on insects, syrups, fruits, vegetables, and protein-rich foods. Humidity should be maintained at 40–60% in the arena and 50–70% in the nest, while the temperature should remain between 23–30 °C in the arena and 22–26 °C in the nest.
