Camponotus carin tipuna

A widely distributed carpenter ant that lives in or under fallen logs in primary forest. It is usually active late at night and forages over a wide area. Unlike the neatly oval heads of Camponotus irritans and the honey-coloured carpenter ant, its workers have a blunt oval head; the body is brown with a thin exoskeleton, while the queen's body and the majors' heads are darker. It moves extremely fast and its slender build is like a thrown spear, hence the Chinese name "spear carpenter ant".
