Meranoplus bicolor
Meranoplus bicolor, is a species of ant of the subfamily Myrmicinae. It is found in many Asian countries, where its habitats range from open grasslands to open-canopy forests. They nest in soil, usually at the base of plants. The nest opening is a simple hole, but it can sometimes have multiple openings. Workers forage on the ground as well as on plants, where they exploit extrafloral nectaries and tend to aphids.

gollark: All hard drives pale in comparison to the power of the SSD.
gollark: How much storage will this person actually *need*?
gollark: Oh, so it already has an HDD which can be replaced? I don't see why you couldn't just swap it out for a ~240GB one.
