Myrmica sabuleti
A smaller red ant than the more widespread M. rubra and M. ruginodis. Myrmica sabuleti is extremely similar to Myrmica scabrinodis and the two are very difficult to tell apart. This was one of several workers becoming active under a log within grass, on the edge of an area of woodland at Sherwood Forest CP in March 2011.
