They look so unassuming and boring, but their nests are among the deepest documented, especially for their size... and they live in NYC. Right on Park Ave.

Attached: 1 image I'm despertly reading every paper I can find that mentions Dorymyrmex bureni because I'm baffled by what I'm seeing with these ants. I ran into this classic paper. I've always remembered that winter ants have the deepest nests, but look whose nest is the second deepest! The dorries! 1/ https://www.bio.fsu.edu/~tschink/publications/2015-beauty.pdf
