Huberia brounii is a species of ant in the genus Huberia , endemic to New Zealand. [1]
Huberia brounii was described in 1895 by Auguste Forel from a single queen collected in Rotorua. [2]
The species name "brounii" refers to Thomas Broun who collected the holotype. [2]
Huberia brounii is endemic to New Zealand. The species is widespread throughout both the North Island and the South Island in native forests. Like Huberia striata , it likely has a preference for Nothofagus dominated forests. [3]
