From the looks of it, this species flies the morning after a large rain at sunrise. Cool to see.

Seen at first sheet described below
Set up three sheets in different habitats at Lake Wales Ridge WEA: Royce Unit
1: Edge of the Scrub habitat, lit by bioquip blacklight from 21:03-00:40
Winds were pretty strong, maybe as high as 10 knots making for difficult photography. It eventually calmed down later in the night.
All observations from this sheet: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?d1=2022-03-22&d2=2022-03-23&nelat=27.369384610833777&nelng=-81.34855980005382&order_by=observed_on&place_id=any&project_id=blacklighting-florida&swlat=27.368074521971483&swlng=-81.35366404380916&user_id=joemdo
2: Seepage Slope/Pine Flatwoods mix, lit by 1 DJ blacklight from 20:30-00:22

3: Pasture/Wet Flatwoods mix, lit by 2 DJ blacklights and bioquip blacklight
I set this sheet up one DJ blacklight at around 20:15 but when I came back from the other sheets the light had obviously been off for a while. I put both DJ blacklights and the bioquip light on this sheet to end the night. Thankfully the winds had calmed down by the time I set this sheet up. Lit from 01:25-03:54

Did some blacklighting at A.D. Barnes park. I set up two different lights, this one was a DJ blacklight available cheap on amazon...read more here: https://www.inaturalist.org/journal/damontighe/11836-diy-moth-light
Location is fairly accurate, sheet set up near some cabbage palmettos along a trail
The other light I used was a bioquip light, set up on a wall (needed an outlet)
Other observations from about an hour and a half of blacklighting:https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?nelat=25.742214400706917&nelng=-80.30283221218588&on=2021-06-03&place_id=any&subview=map&swlat=25.736899039469648&swlng=-80.31483897153839&user_id=joemdo

They have short triangular jaws and small eyes. The front end of the ant was a reddish color compared to the opposite end of the ant, which was a deeper red/black color. These ants have 12-segmented antennae.
