Nigriceps ants have adapted to their surroundings by making their homes in the Swollen Thorn Acacia tree. The ants prune the growth of the tree to ensure that it grows vertically and is difficult to attack by other ants. The environment is too wet or too dry by times for them to nest on the ground.
