Synonymy of Leonomyrma Arnoldi 1968 With Chalepoxenus Menozzi 1922 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
Arnoldi (1968) erected the genus Leonomyrma for a single new species, L. spinosa, which he had collected in July, 1949, near Peremetriaja, East-Kasachstan (USSR), at the lower course of Ural River. Up until present, only the type series of 4 ♀♀ and 14 ♂♂ have been known; no ☿☿ were found. In the cou...

| description |
Arnoldi (1968) erected the genus Leonomyrma for a single new
species, L. spinosa, which he had collected in July, 1949, near
Peremetriaja, East-Kasachstan (USSR), at the lower course of Ural
River. Up until present, only the type series of 4 ♀♀ and 14 ♂♂ have
been known; no ☿☿ were found. In the course of a study in morphology
and behavior of several species of the ant genus Chalepoxenus,
I came across the description of Leonomyrma. A direct
comparison of its holotype (♀) and an allotype (♂) with material of
two Chalepoxenus species, C. muellerianus (Finzi) (= C. gribodoi
Menozzi) and C. kutteri Cagniant, clearly revealed the synonymy of
the two genera. |
