The Indian jumping ant is a small ant found in India. It hunts alone or in small groups and can leap up to 2 cm high and 10 cm far, both to escape and to catch insects in the air. It is best left alone, because the original description says it bites and stings severely.1

Dintlha

Workers can jump up to 2 cm high and 10 cm far, using a synchronised push from their middle and hind pairs of legs.1

When workers become queens or gamergates, their brains become smaller.1

Some workers can mate and lay fertilised eggs just like the queen. These workers are called gamergates.1

Enzymes that slow ageing are increased when workers turn into reproductives.1

The nest entrance is closed by the ants in the evening and reopened during the day.1
