Nothomyrmecia is a medium-sized ant measuring 9.7–11 mm (0.38–0.43 in) in length. Workers are monomorphic , meaning that there is little morphological differentiation among one another. [ 2 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] The mandibles, clypeus (one of the sclerites that make up the "face" of an arthropod or insect), antennae and legs are pale yellow.
The entire life cycle of the ant takes around 35-60 days to complete, depending on environmental factors such as heat, available resources, and humidity. Eggs. The eggs are laid by the queen ant, who measures around 18-20 mm. Eggs are very small, usually 1-3 mm, and look like white beads. It can take up to two weeks for the larvae to hatch from ...

This creates the illusion of having a distinct head, thorax and gaster of the weaver ant, complete with a long and slender waist. The large compound eyes of the weaver ant are mimicked by two ...
Carpenter ants are generally large ants: workers are 4–7 mm long in small species and 7–13 mm in large species, queens are 9–20 mm long and males are 5–13 mm long. The bases of the antennae are separated from the clypeal border by a distance of at least the antennal scape's maximum diameter.
The queens can reach a length of 19–21 mm and the largest workers (super majors) can achieve similar sizes of around 14–17 mm . They, along with several other Camponotus species, are among the largest species of ant in North America. As with all ants, the antennae are geniculate (elbowed). Workers usually have 12 antenna segments.
