Forelius pusillus

Forelius pusillus is a species of ant in the genus Forelius.

Described by Santschi in 1922, the species is endemic to South America.

[1] Forelius pusillus is noted to perform "pre-emptive defensive self-sacrifice", where a group of ants leave the security of the nest after sealing the entrance from the outside each evening.
