Ants in eastern Crete in September 2024

I have posted observations of 4 different kinds of ant which I saw in a small area of the buildings and roadways at a hotel in eastern Crete between 9 and 14 September 2024: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?d1=2024-09-09&d2=2024-09-14&place_id=7094&taxon_id=47336&user_id=cf125. The smallest were Genus Lepisiota and the largest were Genus Campinotus. The others were Genus Tapinoma and Complex Pheidole pallidula
Most interesting were two different species which I saw at 14.56 and then 4 hours later that day at 18.25, feeding on what I think was the same body of a dead bee (probably Amegilla). (Both photos were taken in exactly the same location.)
