Camponotus maintilany

Camponotus maintilany occurs from 1300–1987 m in elevation and inhabits a montane environment in the central highlands, where it prefers mostly Uapaca forest or woodland, but is also found in savanna grassland and eucalyptus plantations. This new species has been collected by digging in soil, sifting leaf litter, and baiting with tuna fish or sardines. In addition, a few workers were found in Malaise traps.
