User's notes
this ant behaved and moved like a spider. It moved in and out the gum leaves, clearly patrolling for food, jumped from one to the next, sat at times like a spider, and if I look closely at the pics I can see it comes with its own back spines! not seen this species before. I am also unclear if there were one or two. Kept disappearing in behind leaves.
