Camponotus tratra

Known only from Madagascar, Camponotus tratra has a sparse but wide distribution from Parc National Montgne d’Ambre in the north through Makirovana Forest in the northeast and Réserve Spéciale Manongarivo in the northwest, to Parc National Zahamena in the central east and Parc National Andohahela in the southeast. Workers of this species have been sampled most often from low vegetation and rarely from leaf litter and one nest was found in dead branches above the ground.
