Chronomyrmex is an extinct genus of ants of the subfamily Dolichoderinae. The genus only contains a single species Chronomyrmex medicinehatensis, discovered in Canada and described in 2013. [1]
Dolichoderinae is a subfamily of ants, which includes species such as the Argentine ant, the erratic ant, the odorous house ant, and the cone ant. The subfamily presents a great diversity of species throughout the world, distributed in different biogeographic realms, from the Palearctic, Nearctic, Afrotropical region and Malaysia, to the Middle East, Australian, and Neotropical regions.
Turneria is a genus of ants that belongs to the subfamily Dolichoderinae. Known from Australia, they form small colonies of fewer than 500 workers, and nest in trees and twigs.
Amyrmex golbachi is a rare Neotropical species of ant and the only known species in the genus Amyrmex. It is currently only known from males from the Amazon basin of Brazil and from northern Argentina.
Anillidris is a genus of ants which only contains the species Anillidris bruchi. The genus is known only from a few collections in Brazil and Argentina. For a time Anillidris was synonymous with genus Linepithema, but was revived from synonymy by Shattuck (1992).
Loweriella boltoni is a species of ant and is the only known species of genus Loweriella. The species is only known from workers collected in the rainforest in Sarawak, Malaysia.
Dorymyrmex is a genus of ants in the subfamily Dolichoderinae.
Leptomyrmex, or spider ants, is a genus of ants and a distinctive member of the ant subfamily Dolichoderinae. Commonly known as "spider ants" for their long legs and spider-like movements, these orange and black ants are prominent residents of intact wet forest and sclerophyll habitats throughout their range. One extant species, Leptomyrmex relictus, is known from central Brazil; otherwise, the global distribution of this genus is restricted to eastern Australia, New Caledonia and New Guinea, as well as the nearby Indonesian islands of Aru and Seram.
Liometopum is a genus of ants that belongs to the subfamily Dolichoderinae, found in North America, Europe and Asia.
Gracilidris is a genus of dolichoderine ants with nocturnal behaviour; thought to have gone extinct 15-20 million years ago, they have been found in Paraguay, Brazil, and Argentina and were described in 2006.
Forelius damiani is a species of ant in the genus Forelius. It was discovered and described by Guerrero, R. J. & Fernandez, F. in 2008.
Axinidris is a genus of arboreal ants in the subfamily Dolichoderinae. The genus is known from forested areas the Afrotropics, where they nest in hollow stems or rotten wood. They forage mainly in trees, but occasionally on the ground.
Bothriomyrmex is a genus of ants in the subfamily Dolichoderinae.
Forelius is a Neotropical genus of ants in the subfamily Dolichoderinae. The genus is known from southern United States to Argentina.
Froggattella is a genus of ants in the subfamily Dolichoderinae. The genus contains two species found in Australia. Froggattella kirbii is fairly common, while Froggattella latispina is known only from two locations in South Australia.
Papyrius is a genus of ants in the subfamily Dolichoderinae. The genus is known only from Australia and New Guinea, where they nest in dead wood in forested areas.
Nebothriomyrmex is a genus of ants in the subfamily Dolichoderinae containing the single species Nebothriomyrmex majeri. The genus is known from Western Australia.
Dorymyrmex amazonicus is a Neotropical species of ant in the subfamily Dolichoderinae.
Eurymyrmex is an extinct genus of ant in the Formicidae subfamily Dolichoderinae. The genus contains a single described species Eurymyrmex geologicus. It was described in 1994, where the first fossils of the ant were found in China.
Gracilidris humiloides is an extinct species of ant in the genus Gracilidris. It was discovered in the Dominican amber, only known from a single specimen, described by Wilson in 1985.
Cananeuretus is an extinct genus of ant in the Formicidae subfamily Aneuretinae, and is one of two Cretaceous genera of the subfamily. The genus contains a single described species Cananeuretus occidentalis and is known from one Late Cretaceous fossil which has been found in North America.
