Summary description from Wikipedia:

Messor structor

Messor structor est une espèce de fourmis qui vit dans des milieux calcaires et siliceux. Elle se rencontre sur une bande allant de Nantes à Besançon pour la partie septentrionale, de Bordeaux à Grenoble en passant par Toulouse pour la plus méridionale. Elle se chevauche avec Messor ibericus dans la vallée du Rhône. On ne la rencontre pas dans la région méditerranéenne.

C'est une espèce polygyne (avec plusieurs reines), chez qui l'on observe un polyphénisme important comme pour tout le genre. Les ouvrières mesurent de 3 à 10 mm et présentent un polyphénisme progressif: minor, media et major. Les reines mesurent 10 mm. C'est une espèce essentiellement granivore et insectivore.
