Australia has so many amazing ants that most people don't think about Australian carpenter ants much. You have whole genuses over there that the rest of the world lacks.
And yet the Camponotus ants ...
There are 126 species of carpenter ant in Australia.
There are only about 60 carpenter ants in the nearartic region (this is basically the part of North America that has winter) ... but of those only about 30 are really relevant in most cases.
