Abstract

We revise the taxonomy of species of the ant genus Cephalotes occurring in Brazil. Sixty-four species are recognized, distributed in 14 species groups. Five species are described as new: Cephalotes gabicamacho new species, Cephalotes marycorn new species, and Cephalotes monicaulyssea new species (angustus group); Cephalotes liviaprado new species (fiebrigi group); and Cephalotes mariadeandrade new species (pinelii group). The soldier and gyne of C. adolphi (angustus group), and the gyne and male of C. nilpiei (pinelii group) are described for the first time. Cephalotes marginatus is synonymized under C. atratus. The bruchi and the laminatus species groups are synonymized under fiebrigi and pusillus groups, respectively. The new species group manni is proposed, derived from the basalis species group. Distribution maps for each species in Brazil are provided. In addition, we provide an illustrated morphological glossary for the genus and illustrated identification keys for workers and soldiers for species groups and for all Brazilian species.

巴西龟蚁的分类学研究(蚁科:蚁科:头蚁科)
我们修订了巴西头蚁属的物种分类。已知物种64种,分布于14个种群。新增5种:gabicamacho Cephalotes新种、marycorn Cephalotes新种、monicaulyssea Cephalotes新种(angustus群);生猪头蝇新种(飞蝇群);mariadeandade纲头螺新种(松属)。本研究首次描述了C. adolphi (angustus group)的士兵和雌性,C. nilpiei (pinelii group)的雌性和雄性。在C. atratus下同义。bruchi和laminatus种群分别同义于fiebrigi和pusillus群。提出了一个新的种群manni,由basalis种群衍生而来。提供了每个物种在巴西的分布图。此外,我们提供了一个插图形态学词汇属和插图识别钥匙的工人和士兵为物种组和所有巴西物种。A R T I C L E I N F O文章历史:2021年3月14日接收2021年6月25日在线2021年9月13日副主编:Eduardo Almeida
