The Camponotus fallax, also known as the black carpenter ant, is a hardworking insect that builds nests in wood. They are very social and live in large groups called colonies. These ants help break down dead wood in nature.
生息地: Forests
The Camponotus fallax is a medium-sized ant, often bicolored with a reddish-brown head and thorax contrasting with a darker, sometimes black, abdomen. It has a relatively large head and a smooth, shiny exoskeleton. Its distinct color pattern helps it blend with decaying wood.
