  • Weaver ants are arboreal and build massive colonies in the canopy of tropical forests across Asia and Australia. A single colony can span dozens of trees and include hundreds of thousands of workers. The nests are constructed from leaves that are pulled together and “stitched” using silk produced by larvae.

    Workers forage both in the trees and on the ground, feeding on live prey such as insects, as well as honeydew from aphids and scale insects. These ants are polygyne, meaning multiple queens can coexist in a single colony. The species communicates using a complex system of pheromones, touch, and visual cues, and will fiercely defend their territory from intruders.
