User's notes
Non-aggressive (at least to humans!), moderately-large, black ant, bearing distinctive iridescent yellow abdomens with varying sizes of black lateral stripes. This one appears to be having a wrangle with another (unidentifiable) ant. This may be a different Sp to the similar-looking ant at sighting 4664483
