| Genus Odontomachus | February 07 2026 | Central Aceh Regency,Aceh, Indonesia |
When I was cleaning the front yard of my house, suddenly I managed to find a very unique insect, at first I thought the insect was a black wasp but strangely its size was very small, I was confused after seeing it from a close distance, its shape was very similar to an ant and had a large jaw but this insect had wings that looked like a wasp. I was curious and tried to find out information about this insect from Google, and it turned out that this was a large jaw ant. I didn't study it too much but some of these ants have wings and some don't.

This ant has a very unique color, namely jet black, this ant is very active and very wild, it is even very difficult to photograph it, this ant has a very large jaw so I am very careful with it, this ant keeps pacing on tree branches and does not stop at all. I tried to photograph this ant using the help of a macro lens, the reason is that its size is very small so it is very difficult if I photograph it using only a cellphone camera.
