Green Tree Ant (Oecophylla smaragdina)
Hi Dinu,
Those look terrible. Are they just in your country?
The Mast Tree, the one shown, grows here too, and in fact there is one in my yard.

Hi Hap,
I understand it is not just in my country but it exists in other places too. The tree is Polyalthea longifolia. Those are big nests they have made using their silk. It is a terrible problem. They seem to have increased everywhere in the last 5+ years.
