From the GreenTracks Amazon Herping Tour 10/06 - 10/13, 2018
From Dante Fenolio
Notes from the Amazon No.258: Trap-jaw ants (genus Odontomachus) carry their jaws locked back and cocked while hunting. They snap together with an audible sound, holding either prey or predator to be stung. Nests are usually constructed in leaf litter and the ants are diurnal. With a worldwide tropical distribution, there are over two dozen species found in the Neotropics.
