Tetraponera

The Fourmi Tetraponera lives in Equatorial forest in particular with the Gabon. It is carnivorous. Its puncture is as painful as that of the Guêpe but its effect is less long in time.

Tetraponera in particular colonizes hollow shafts called Barteria. The queen chooses a branch, digs an access to the central cavity there. She is established while having torn off her wings before, lays and deals there with the first generation of workers.

Two colonies of Tetraponara cannot be supported on the same tree. Often the largest colony will exterminate smallest.

The ant Tetraponera colonizes a hollow shaft the Barteria called with the Gabon the tree of adultery. One attached the adulteresses formerly to it.
