More undescribed Kangaroo Island Myrmecia sp.

Approx 12mm. Smaller than inch ant and moved faster.

small bullant ~10mm escaped into the leaf litter never to be seen again

Suggestions as to what this is? It has developed teeth, so it isn't from the M. Mandibularis species group.

10mm, only ant on a smooth trunk, can't pick which one

C. 12mm

2cm, queen

M. desertorum or M. nigriceps

Sp.17 queen

Day 3 in Uluṟu, visited Kata Tjuṯa. Wet, rainy, miserable, and I got wet socks, but these ants made my day!

Can’t see them great in the photos but they were definitely some Gulosa-complex Myrmecia.

Small jumpers (about a centimeter?) near the resorts. Identified based on body ratio, colors, and info on antwiki
