Myrmecia inquilina

 * Symbol confirmed.svg This newly promoted GA is new enough and long enough. I struck ALT1 as boring. I changed the word inquiline in the original hook to "parasitic" because an inquiline does not harm its host whereas this ant clearly does. The hook fact is cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no close paraphrasing. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:34, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
