[1] It is a reddish headed medium-sized ant, with mesosoma and waist contrasting with a dark gaster.

[2] The species can adversely affect native biodiversity.

[3] The Tetramorium bicarinatum's venom arrangement shows potential for a new pharmacologically active substance, bicarinalin.

This antibacterial, antimicrobial, and anti-infective compound could potentially be chemically synthesized to combat antibiotic-resistant pathogens by means of drug therapy.
