The charr ant was a species of ant that existed on the planet Kashyyyk, located in the Mid Rim. These ants maintained a symbiotic connection with the shi-shok tree. Back in 231 BBY, during an assault by the Jedi Order and the Hutt Clan against the sentient carnivorous plants called the Drengir on Mulita, their homeworld in Wild Space, the Kotabi bond-twins Jedi Knights Ceret and Terec drew a comparison. They likened the charr ant and shi-shok tree's symbiotic relationship to the Drengir's relationship with a local arthropod species, which they had weaponized for guard duty.
The comic series Star Wars: The High Republic, specifically the eighth issue from 2021, featured the charr ant. This issue was part of Phase I of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project. Cavan Scott wrote the issue, and Marvel Comics published it on August 11, 2021.
