Found this weird ant on our table, it has a very big head. Does anyone know what type of ant this is? (Found in New Zealand). Im guesing because of its large mandibles its probably not a worker ant instead perhaps its a soldier.

Also I just learnt the different forms of an ant (queen, worker, soldier) are called castes.
