Cardiocondyla emeryi Forel 1881

Diagnostic Description ( Anglèis )

fornì da Plazi (legacy text)

A single worker taken at Thysville by Bequaert. This minute ant is very widely distributed through the tropics of both hemispheres. It was originally described from the island of St. Thomas in the West Indies, but was later recorded from Syria, Madeira, Madagascar, and the East Indies. Arnold records it from South Africa and my collection contains specimens from the Bahamas, Cuba, Porto Rico, Jamaica, Bermuda, Tepic in Western Mexico, and Miami, Florida. According to Arnold it "is usually found nesting in grassy soil; the entrance to the nest is a minute hole, not surrounded by earth or other substances."

Le [[ male ]] de Madere recolte par M. Schmitz dans le temps est au contraire entierement d'un brun noiratre; du reste identique.
