Notostigma

Notostigma is a genus of ants in the subfamily Formicinae and the sole member of the tribe Notostigmatini.[2] Its two species are known only from Australia. Workers are nocturnal and forage solitarily.[3] Notostigma was first described by Emery (1920), when he erected the new genus for three species of carpenter ants (Camponotus).[4]

gollark: ~~haskell~~
