'', '' Aenictus laeviceps'', '' Aenictus hodgsoni'', and '' Aenictus paradentatus'' are known to hunt a variety of invertebrate prey, including ants, using a large number of workers in raids.Jaitrong W, Yamane Sk (2011) Synopsis of Aenictus species groups and revision of the A. currax and A. laeviceps groups in the eastern Oriental, Indo-Australian, and Australasian regions (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Aenictinae). Zootaxa 3128: 1-46. Foraging raids undertaken by these ants occur both day and night, usually across the ground surface but occasionally also in trees. During raids, numerous workers attack ant nests in a small area, with several workers coordinating their efforts to carry large prey items back to the nest or bivouac. Species of ''Aenictus'' are generally small, monomorphic and yellow to dark brown.
