Pheidole noda is pretty big, ive kept them for some time. Soldiers are like 4 times as big as Pheidole pallidula and normal workers are the size of for example Lasius niger.

Can you express the size of the soldiers of Pheidole noda in milimetres? I can get Pheidole nodus, which has soldiers with the size of 6mm.

I have a Pheidole nodus colony. Does anyone know the size of Pheidole noda soldiers to compare?

The largest Pheidole species in Asia are Ceratopheidole sinica which has a queen around 13 mm with large major workers of 8-9mm. :shock:

They are bigger than Pheidole noda.
