Tetramorium hispidum is a species of ant in the subfamily Myrmicinae. [1] Tetramorium hispidum differs from similar ants in the Myrmicinae subfamily by the structure surrounding the ant's antennal insertions. Short, stubble-like hairs exist on the pronotum and frontal carinae. The antenna of Tetramorium hispidum contains 11 segments. [2]

Tetramorium inquilinum is an ectoparasitic ant found in Europe. It was discovered by Swiss myrmecologist Heinrich Kutter. The species is unusual for lacking a worker caste, the queens and males living entirely off the care of the pavement ant. It has been called "the 'ultimate' parasitic ant" by myrmecologists Edward O. Wilson and Bert Hölldobler.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Agroecomyrmecinae</span> Subfamily of ants

Agroecomyrmecinae is a subfamily of ants containing two extant and two fossil genera. The subfamily was originally classified in 1930 by Carpenter as Agroecomyrmecini, a Myrmicinae tribe. Bolton raised the tribe to subfamily status in 2003, suggesting that Agroecomyrmecinae might be the sister taxon to Myrmicinae. It has since been discovered to be one of the earliest lineages of ants, a clade from the basal polytomy for all ants. In 2014, the subfamily was expanded to two tribes. The tribe Ankylomyrmini was moved from the subfamily Myrmicinae to Agroemyrmecinae.
