Odontoponera denticulata

So far found only in Penghu, where it lives on the forest floor. Its most distinctive feature is the row of small teeth along the front edge of the clypeus, hence the name. Workers are monomorphic with no soldiers, the thorax bears fingerprint-like striations, and every individual has a sting in its gaster. It only takes insects of similar or smaller size as prey.
