The Dinosaur ant is a large ant from northeastern Brazil. It has a venomous sting that it uses to subdue big live prey and to defend its nest. Scientists are studying its venom because it may be useful for medicines.1

Otú ị ga-esi mata ya

Workers have a fine, textured surface that is dull rather than shiny.1
Workers are covered in long, hair-like bristles.1
Males are light brown and have long, fine hairs on the second segment of their antennae.1
Colonies are large, with an average of 80 workers and a range of 26 to 238.1

A na-agwakọkarị ya na: It is most often confused with Dinoponera mutica. Dinoponera quadriceps has a dull, finely textured surface, no striped throat and a petiole (the narrow waist segment) that bulges at its upper front edge. Dinoponera mutica has a rougher surface, a striped throat and a petiole with even, non-bulging corners.1

Eziokwu

This ant has no queen. All individuals are similar in form and can reproduce.1

In laboratory tests on mice, its venom reduced pain.1

Its nests are deeper than those of Dinoponera gigantea, which may help it cope with dry seasons.1

Of all the Dinoponera ants, this species has the largest colonies.1
