This specimen fits quite well with the description of Camponotus oasium, but with other two sahelian species: Camponotus guttatus and Camponotus abjectus. As it's overall matt, we prefer to  we prefer to state this sample as Camponotus oasium, as the other two species where decribed as shiny.

Our gratitude to Dr. Brian Taylor for his helpful guidance in this issue.
