This colony was accidentally found inside of a hollow wooden gall (the left of the two in the first image). The gall was about the size of a golf ball and was found attached to to a Lantana canara stem. When the gall was split open, this small colony was revealed (including workers, winged queens, and drones). In the centre of the last image, a larger worker can be seen standing almost on top of a much smaller worker
