Carebara creolei

Individuals and colonies were found in sifted litter, leaf mold, rotten wood, under coconut husks on the ground, and under rootmats/litter on rocks. The distribution of this species on two distant islands is interesting given the presence of invasive species on these islands. It is possible that C. creolei has been introduced, but a review of described species from outside the region, notably in SE Asia, did not turn up any possible candidates. (Azorsa and Fisher 2018)
