The big black ants in the aceh language generally say Sidom-Apui, this is because the bite is very painful but not dangerous or poisonous. This ant is one of the most social groups in the family of insects, and living very organized colonies help each other that is arranged very well.

This ant has breathing holes in the chest called Spirakel for air circulation in their Respiration system. Above the head of this ant there are many sophisticated organs in the form of sensor antennas, these small animals have compound eyes consisting of a collection of smaller and combined lenses to detect the movement of objects and prey very well. In addition they also have three Oselus at the top of its head to detect light changes and Polarization.

Usually these ants have poor eyesight, some even can not see at all, and this does not matter because they have a pair of antennas that can help the ants detect the chemical stimuli of air also serves to communicate with each other.

It is common to see ants living in soils with moderate tempratures, these ants are also known as hard workers. It is said that they can build a hill as high as 40 cm and 70 cm wide, or dig a small tunnel to the depth of 1.7 meters underground. The ability of such a small animal can make a large and wide nest is not separated from the togetherness and mutual cooperation between the ants.

As for clarification than ant life is:

#One || Queen Ants
The queen ant has a larger body than the rest of the colony, flourishes perfectly and has a well-developed flying wing mechanism.
#Two || Male Ant
Male ants are smaller in size than queen ants, have antennas and similar components found in queen ants. Male ants are naturally more numerous than ant queens, male live ants are relatively short. Usually after fertilizing the queen ant they will die naturally.
#Three || Workers Ants
An ant worker character is more easily known for being smaller. The flying mechanism never develops in other words has no wings. The antenna is brown and geniculate type is the first segment lengthwise and the next segment is short.
#Four || Ants Soldiers
In general, worker ants have different sizes. The origin or birth of worker ants from the queen egg that first built the nest, this body size is smaller when compared with the ant workers who were born afterwards. In this case two different worker castes emerged, which had larger body sizes called soldiers, and small ones became worker ants. The warrior ants have large, hard head sizes and sturdy and strong jaws.

The main task of soldier ants is to fight and protect their main nest, sometimes also seen ant soldiers helping ant workers to transport food sources brought into the nest.
