Could this be the elusive C. stefani? It was on the window and therefore a bit slower than usual. Unfortunately I didn't get a dorsal view because it had gone by the time I got outside.

Hi Cath, unusual angle for the photo - we won't normally get a look at an ant from underneath! Alas, not C. stefani. We'll get it somewhere! Cheers, Jon
