Colobopsis etiolata, commonly known as the twig ant, is a species of ant found in Southeast Asia. These ants are known for their unique adaptation of using their bodies to mimic twigs, allowing them to camouflage and blend seamlessly into their surroundings. They have elongated bodies and slender legs, resembling small twigs. Colobopsis etiolata colonies are typically found in forested areas, where they build their nests on tree branches or in leaf litter.
