Dilobocondyla

These rare ants are arboreal, forming small colonies in twigs. Little else is known about their biology.



Worker of D. cataulacoidea from Queensland.

Identification
The rear corners of the head form sharp angles or points (best viewed from the front). Weak but distinct grooves (antennal scrobes) are present on the front of the head for the reception of the antennae when at rest. The node of the petiole is very low and rounded, so much so that it is almost absent. The shape of the head and petiolar node will separate these ants from all others in Australia.
