I'm guessing you are from South America, and it looks like the bueatiful Camponotus chilineses

Not Polyrhachis?

 

EDIT: Never mind, Polyrhachis aren't in the New World countries.

That's definitely a Carpenter ant major (Camponotus sp) and most likely as mentioned above already it is Camponotus chilensis.

We should respect all forms of consciousness. The body is just a vessel, a mere hull.
