I think I'm going insane, because this ant does not fit any of the Polish Camponotus species, because no Polish ants have truncated heads and are black in color.

3. Woodland? I mean, it's sort of a habitat you'd see at the edges of a forest except there is no forest for it to be an edge of, also, they like hanging out on the wall and ceiling of the tool shed.
4. Not taken.
5. Shiny dark with orange legs, moderate pilosity of all segments with short setae
6. One node, roughly 11 antennal segments, truncated head.
7. Mostly arboreal, I haven't yet spotted one on the ground that didn't try to immediately try to climb something.
8. In a tree I think
9. N/A

I have no idea what this ant is, neither of the Polish Camponotus fit ( none have truncated heads to my knowledge, except that one odd colony of Camponotus piceus, but they are all black without any orange), neither does the one European Colobopsis fit.
