The giant Amazonian ant is one of the largest ant species in the world. It lives underground in the lowland rainforests of South America, where its nests can have several entrances. Its size makes it easy to spot among other ants.1

Anaishi

South America: Guyana, Brazil (Amazonas, Pará, Mato Grosso, Ceará, Maranhão and others) and Loreto, Peru. Probably also nearby areas such as French Guiana.1

Amerika Kusini

Nyumbani

It lives in lowland rainforest, especially in forests that do not flood. Its colonies build underground nests with up to eight entrances. Unlike many ants, it does not build a mound above the nest.1

Urefu

3 cm hadi 4 cm (1.2 in hadi 1.6 in)1

Kasi ya juu

takriban km 0.47 kwa saa (maili 0.29 kwa saa)

Nchi kavu, makadirio

Hula nini?

It eats both plant and animal food. Foragers bring back fruits of vismia plants, inga seeds, and small animals such as spiders, crickets and snails. About 10% of foraging trips succeed, and successful trips usually last 30 to 60 minutes.1

Jinsi ya kumtambua

Females are coal-black and measure 3 to 4 cm long.1
Males are much smaller and dark red.1
Nest entrances are surrounded by the soil dug out of the nest, but no mound is formed.1
Individual ants forage alone, usually within about 10 metres of the nest.1

Akidunga

Osha na upoze sehemu zilizodungwa.
Mtu akipata shida ya kupumua, uso au koo likivimba, au akijisikia kuzimia, hiyo ni dharura ya mzio: piga namba ya dharura.

Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza

Kaa salama

Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
Akikudunga: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.

Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ukweli

Neighbouring colonies have separate foraging areas. When ants from different colonies meet at the border, they face off, lock their jaws and push and kick each other.1

Border fights can last up to half an hour, and both ants are usually left uninjured.1

It is one of the largest ant species in the world.1

One colony can use more than one nest at a time. Some nest entrances were found 40 to 250 cm apart.1

Its nests are about 40 cm deep, with chambers roughly 3 cm high and 20 cm wide.1
