Orange-tailed Sugar Ant - Camponotus sp.

Subfamily Formicinae

This page contains pictures and information about Orange-tailed Sugar Ants that we found in the Brisbane area, Queensland, Australia.

Body length 10mm

 

This sugar ant is orange brown in colour with steel black head. 

 

 

Photos were taken in Karawatha Forest near the She-oak Area. The ant nest was on ground in soil with a simple open entrance. The nest entrance was not very busy at that moment. We only saw this ant once.
