queen with red abdomen - Carebara longii - Austin, Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center, Travis County, Texas, USA August 18, 2011 Size: female about 8 mm
A better view of the second male just after he separated from the female. At this point, the little jumping spider had returned and was pulling on the wing of the female. The male seemed to watch in detached interest (okay, a little anthropomorphism there...)
