Hi Speedsta, I think this ant may well be a new species for CNM, Camponotus stefani, but I can't see it well enough to be sure. If you go that way again, see if you can get a few more photos. Cheers, Jon

Will do.
They were very fast, hence the blurry photo.
Exciting that it could be a new species.
