Pity hir background had to be a wretched Syringa

The entrance to the colony found in grass. A small ant of 3-5mm. Walks continuously with a steady gate, not aggressive.

Nuptial flight preparations. A nearby colony of Lepisiota where interacting with them. No violence but they did seem to push each other away.

A large ant of near the same size as C. storeatus, which I thought it was (some seen the same day in the vicinity) but the sparse hairs made me rethink.
