The Namib Desert dune ant, is a large ant species distinguished by white and black symmetrical stripes and markings on its hairy abdomen. It has an average mass of 45 milligrams (0.0016 oz). It is classified within the carpenter ant genus, a large group of more than 1,000 known species, many of which are associated with forested habitats in America and elsewhere. However C. detritus inhabits the hot dry dunes of the hyper-arid central Namib Desert in Southern Africa. Like many other ant species, it obtains its food and moisture by climbing the stalks of plants and drinking honeydew from scale insects, which themselves feed on shrubs and other perennial plants. It will also feed on dead insects. The nests of this species, located amongst perennial plant roots, are systems of tunnels and chambers between 100–400 millimetres (3.9–15.7 in) deep. Nests can reach temperatures of 35 °C (95 °F) in summer, though they are much cooler in winter, typically 20–23 °C (68–73 °F). Nests are often lined with detritus - hence the binomial Latin name of the species. Each colony contains a single queen.
Camponotus dumetorum is a species of ant in the family Formicidae. This species belongs to the genus Camponotus, which is native to North America. They are related to other species from the subgenus Tanaemyremex in western North America such as C. semitestaceus and C. vicinus. C. dumetorum are primarily nocturnal and form undergrounds nests. Like other select ant species native to California, their populations have been displaced with the introduction of Argentine ants.
