These ants are about 1 cm long and unlike some of the species we have in Egypt are only found outside.

Hi Brian I see you are a new member, so welcome and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Thank for your help and the link to your tremendous website, it will keep me occupied for hours as insects are a new hobby and I have so much to learn.  |
