  • Oxyopomyrmex saulcyi inhabits dry, arid habitats. Nests are usually located in sandy soil . Forel (1904) published a very detailed description of O. saulcyi nests found in Tunisia. Nest entrances were single, narrow and surrounded by a crater (2-3 cm diameter, 2-3 cm height). From the entrance hole a long, vertical corridor leads to the first chamber (occupied by gyne and larvae). From the first chamber, a second vertical corridor (15-20 cm length) leads to 2-3 chambers filled by seeds and workers.
