Camponotus gigas is a dominant member of the ant communities of the Southeast Asian rainforests and one of the largest ant species in the world.
Minors of C. gigas have a mean head width of 3.56 mm and a mean weight of 135 mg; majors have a mean head width of 6.9 mm and a mean weight of 372 mg (Pfeiffer & Linsenmair, 2007).
Based on that information, i guess you guys can compare it's size with the other ants that you know.

I have never seen an ant as big as that, but our insects here can't grow very big because of the colder weather. I would love to see an ant as big as those.
