Formiga preta e dourada (Black and golden ant)

Formicidae, Pachycondyla sp.

Description:

A very large ant (around 1,5 cm, half an inch), black body with a golden streak along the head and thorax, and golden spots on the abdomen. It seems to be a leaf-cutter ant, for its "jaws", but it is the first time I see one of these.
