Polyrhachis dives 😍🐜 This weaver ant species from asia is a real beauty! They weave their nests with a kind of silk, that is produced by their larvae. You often see them climb, on the outside of their nests, with a larvae between their mandibles, doing construction 🏗️ work. They softly pinch their larvae with their mandibles to make them extract the silky material. With the silk they glue sand, leaves and small stones to a carton like structure. Amazing little creatures. #weaverants #weberameisen #hormigastejedoras #fourmistisserandes #polyrhachis #polyrhachisdives #goldenant #ants #ameisen #hormigas #fourmi #formiche #myrer #formiga #mieren #macro #petlovers #petsofinstagram #petoftheday #entomology #biodiversity #macrophotography #insectsofinstagram #naturephotography
