Tetramorium krishnani

Tetramorium krishnani is recorded so far only from its type locality on Havelock Island, in the Andaman Islands archipelago but it is likely to be present on other islands of the archipelago. We recorded the species in 8 out of 35 total leaf-litter transects sampled on the island, suggesting that it was not rare. It appears to be restricted to the relatively undisturbed inland wet evergreen forests and only once was it found in the relatively drier coastal forests. Other aspects of its biology such as diet, colony structure, and behavior remain to be recorded.
