The dinosaur ant is one of the rarest ants in the world. It is the only species in its genus and lives in woodland in South Australia. Scientists call it a 'living fossil' because its body is so old-fashioned.1

Ihlala

South Australia, Australia, in mallee and Eucalyptus woodland. Its full range is unknown.1

Ekhaya

It nests in old-growth mallee woodland and Eucalyptus woodland. Colonies are very small, with only 50 to 100 individuals in each nest. Pictures of the ant are stencilled on the streets of Poochera, the town where it was rediscovered.1

Sidlani?

Workers collect arthropod prey and sweet substances such as honeydew from scale insects and other Hemiptera. They forage alone at night and use their vision to find food.1

Indlela yokusibona

Medium-sized ant, 9.7 to 11 mm long.1
Mandibles (jaws), clypeus (part of the 'face'), antennae and legs are pale yellow.1
Body hairs are yellow, long and abundant on the body, and shorter on the antennae and legs.1
Workers are strictly nocturnal, active mainly at night, and forage alone.1

Ivamise ukudidaniswa ne: It shows similar features to Myrmecia and somewhat resembles weaver ants (Oecophylla). The fourth abdominal segment of Myrmecia is tubulate (tube-shaped), but in the dinosaur ant it is non-tubulated, which helps separate the two.1

Ukuhlaba

Ubuthi buphuma ngodosi.

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: KuncaneNjengokuhlatshwa yinyosi noma ngaphansi. Cishe akunangozi ebantwini.

It has a long, retractable sting at the rear of the abdomen, which can give people a painful sting.1

Senzani uma sesabile?

It uses its retractable sting when threatened, and workers release chemical alarm signals.1

Uma sihlaba

Geza bese upholisa izindawo ezihlatshiwe.
Uma umuntu ephefumula kanzima, ebuso noma emphinjeni kuvuvukala, noma ezizwa ezoquleka, lesi yisimo esiphuthumayo se-allergy: shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo.

Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala

Hlala uphephile

Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Uma sikuhlaba: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.

Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso

Scientists regard it as the most plesiomorphic (old-fashioned) ant alive, and it is called a 'living fossil'.1

Poochera is perhaps the only town in the world that relies on ant-based tourism.1

After its first collection in 1931, it was not seen again until 1977, when it was found about 1,300 km from the original site.1

It is the only known ant species with both a sting and a 'waist', meaning it has no postpetiole between the first and second gastral segments.1

Queens have non-functional, stubby wings, while male wings are long and fully developed.1

Okongoti bobuthi

Igama lesayensi: Nothomyrmecia macrops
Iqembu: Izintuthwane
Umndeni: Formicidae2
Ukuhleleka: Hymenoptera
Amazwekazi: I-Australia ne-Oceania
Izinsana: The queen mates with one or more males, then hunts for food while the brood develops. Eggs are subspherical and non-adhesive. Two queens may found a colony together, but only one remains after the first workers are raised.1
Simo saso endle: Critically Endangered1
