Myrmecia infima is an Australian ant species of the genus Myrmecia . First described in 1900 by Auguste-Henri Forel, Myrmecia infima are frequently seen in the western regions of Australia. [1]
Myrmecia infima are rather small bull ants. The average length of a worker is around 6–8 millimetres (which is small when compared to other Myrmecia species that grow over 40 millimetres). Males tend to be 7–8 millimetres long. [2] [3]
Myrmecia nigriceps, also known as the black-headed bull ant, is a species of ant endemic to Australia. A member of the genus Myrmecia in the subfamily Myrmeciinae, it was first described by Austrian entomologist Gustav Mayr in 1862. These ants are large, varying from 19 to 23 millimetres in length. However, colonies contain workers that are much smaller, usually half the size of normal workers. The queens are the largest while the males are the smallest, which can be easily identified due to their small mandibles.
Myrmecia aberrans is an Australian bull ant of the genus Myrmecia. It is mostly spotted in South Australia and the states surroundings. The species of the bull ant was first described in 1900. The average length is around 12 millimetres. M. aberrans ants are commonly known as "wide jawed bull ants".
Myrmecia pyriformis, also known as the bull ant or inch ant, is an Australian ant. Myrmecia pyriformis belongs to the genus Myrmecia. It is abundant in many major cities of Australia, but mostly spotted in the eastern states. The species is of a similar appearance to the Myrmecia forficata.
Myrmecia apicalis is the only Australian bull ant species that is not native to Australia. The Myrmecia apicalis is the only species to be found on a different country, with two collections founded on New Caledonia. It was described in 1883.
Myrmecia analis is a species of the genus Myrmecia. Myrmecia analis is usually only found in Western Australia. It was described by Mayr in 1862.
Myrmecia queenslandica is an Australian ant species. Abundant to most states in Australia, and mainly seen in Queensland, they belong to the genus Myrmecia.
Myrmecia dichospila is an Australian ant which belongs to the genus Myrmecia. This species is endemic to Australia and is heavily distributed in South Australia and have some presence in other several states.
Myrmecia fulviculis, the toothless bullant, is an Australian ant which belongs to the genus Myrmecia. This species is native to Australia and is usually distributed along the coastlines of New South Wales and Queensland.
Myrmecia harderi is an Australian bull ant species which is part of the genus Myrmecia. They are native to Australia. They are mainly distributed in New South Wales, and some parts of Victoria, South Australia, and Queensland.
Myrmecia nigra is an Australian ant which belongs to the genus Myrmecia. This species is native to Australia and is commonly distributed in Western Australia, notably in Perth.

Myrmecia mjobergi is an Australian ant which belongs to the genus Myrmecia. This species is native to Australia. They are heavily distributed in Queensland, and are also distributed in the several other states. They were described by Auguste-Henri Forel in 1915.
Myrmecia chasei is an Australian ant which belongs to the genus Myrmecia. This species is native to Australia. The Myrmecia chasei has a large presence and distribution in the south-eastern areas of Western Australia.
Myrmecia froggatti is an Australian ant which belongs to the genus Myrmecia. This species is endemic to Australia. This species is distributed throughout all areas of New South Wales and elsewhere up north and south.
Myrmecia athertonensis is an Australian ant which belongs to the genus Myrmecia. This species is endemic to Australia. They are commonly spotted in the north of Queensland. It was described by Forel in 1915.
Myrmecia michaelseni is an Australian ant which belongs to the genus Myrmecia. This species is native to Australia. They are mostly distributed and studied in Western Australia.
Myrmecia varians is an Australian ant which belongs to the genus Myrmecia. This species is endemic to Australia. The Myrmecia varians is one of the most distributed ants in the country, with the species being observed in every single state and territory except for Tasmania. Myrmecia varians was first described by Mayr in 1876.
