  1. I don't have the expertise to 100% confirm it, but to me the visual match is strong, as in terms of distribution it also makes sense. Great shot! Posted 4 years ago

''Technomyrmex albipes'', commonly known as the white-footed ant, is a species of ant first described in 1861 from Sulawesi, Indonesia by the British entomologist Frederick Smith. Invasive pest ants in Florida, previously identified as ''T. albipes'', have now been separated as ''Technomyrmex difficilis'', both forming part of a species complex with a worldwide distribution.
