The green-head ant (Rhytidoponera metallica), also known as the green ant or metallic pony ant, is a species of ant that is endemic to Australia. It was described by British entomologist Frederick Smith in 1858 as a member of the genus Rhytidoponera in the subfamily Ectatomminae. These ants measure between 5 to 7 mm (0.20 to 0.28 in). The queens and workers look similar, differing only in size, with the males being the smallest. They are well known for their distinctive metallic appearance, which varies from green to purple or even reddish-violet. Among the most widespread of all insects in Australia, green-head ants are found in almost every Australian state, but are absent in Tasmania. They have also been introduced in New Zealand, where several populations have been established.

Les reines et les ouvrières se ressemblent, ne différant que par la taille, les mâles étant les plus petits. Elles sont bien connues pour leur aspect métallique, qui varie du vert au violet ou même au violet rougeâtre. (fr)

  • Зеленоголо́вый мураве́й (лат. Rhytidoponera metallica) — вид мелких тропических муравьёв рода Rhytidoponera из подсемейства Ectatomminae. Несмотря на свой размер (длина тела от 5 до 7 мм), они обладают сильным жалом, яд которого способен вызвать у человека анафилактический шок. Название насекомого связано с необычной металлически блестящей сине-зелёной окраской с переливами от зеленоватой до бронзово-фиолетовой, сходной с таковой у ос-блестянок. Могут служить орудием биологической борьбы с вредителями, убивая сельскохозяйственных вредителей. Эндемик Австралии, интродуцированный в Новую Зеландию. (ru)
