This is the first record of nesting in the soil by the ant Camponotus sericeiventris (Guerin-Meneville, 1838), which has arboreal habit. The study was conducted in southeastern Brazil, in an ant colony located in a subterranean site. This study describes, for the first time, the ability of this arboreal species to vary its nesting site by the occupation of an unusual place in an urban environment; and this study demonstrates that this species is an interesting model for studies in urban environments. Este e o primeiro registro de nidificacao em solo para a formiga Camponotus sericeiventris (Guerin-Meneville, 1838). O estudo foi desenvolvido no sudeste do Brasil, em uma colonia localizada em area subterrânea, que possui habito arboricola. Esse estudo e o primeiro relato que descreve a capacidade de variar o local de nidificacao da especie arboricola, por meio da ocupacao de local incomum em ambiente urbano o que torna a especie um modelo interessante para estudos nesse tipo de ambiente.
