UPDATE:29/01/17
Ok, so this morning something pretty cool happened. I was strolling around my house just observing the ants and I saw some Odontoponera being attacked by Pheidole (with majors). At first I thought it was pretty normal but I didn't understand why such large numbers of Pheidole were rushing out. A few moments later my dog ran up to where the Odontoponera nest was and he started smelling the nest. Suddenly he jumped back and started barking. He started digging and digging ant about 5 minutes later I saw the remains of a wall gecko. The Pheidole were rather fighting to take possesion of the wall gecko's carcass.
Land structure: Edge of a flower bed, Cracked cement
Found: 29/01/17, 7:03am
Species: Odontoponera sp. ,Pheidole sp.
Here are some pics:
I'll add pictures of the ants later
