Abstract

Abstract. The ant fauna of the Riyadh Province, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) was studied and reviewed based on literature and newly collected material. In total, 93 species were collected from Riyadh Province belonging to the genera Aenictus Shuckard, 1840; Brachymyrmex Mayr, 1868; Brachyponera Emery, 1900; Camponotus Mayr, 1861; Cardiocondyla Emery, 1869; Carebara Westwood, 1840; Cataglyphis Foerster, 1850; Crematogaster Lund, 1831; Dorylus Fabricius, 1793; Hypoponera Santschi, 1938; Lepisiota Santschi, 1926; Lioponera Mayr, 1879; Messor Forel, 1890; Monomorium Mayr, 1855; Nylanderia Emery, 1906; Paratrechina Motschoulsky, 1863; Pheidole Westwood, 1839; Plagiolepis Mayr, 1861; Solenopsis Westwood, 1840; Strumigenys Smith, 1860; Syllophopsis Santschi, 1915; Tapinoma Foerster, 1850; Tetramorium Mayr, 1855; Tetraponera Smith, 1852; and Trichomyrmex Mayr, 1865. Eight species are recorded for the first time from the KSA namely: Cataglyphis fisheri Sharaf & Aldawood, 2015; Nylanderia indica (Forel, 1894); Cardiocondyla bicoronata Seifert, 2003; C. minutior Forel, 1899; C. melana Seifert, 2003; C. yemeni Collingwood & Agosti 1996; Trichomyrmex lameerei (Forel, 1902); and Tr. oscaris (Forel, 1894). The total number of species now known from Riyadh Province has increased from 96 to 109. These belong to 25 genera and five subfamilies. The total number of species currently known from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) increased from 237 to 245. Notes on the ecology and biology of species are provided, when available. A new combination, Trichomyrmex barbatulum (Mayr, 1877) comb. nov. is proposed.

沙特阿拉伯王国蚁群的新增记录(膜翅目:蚁科)，附沙特王国蚁种更新表

摘要根据文献资料和新收集的资料，对沙特阿拉伯王国利雅得省蚂蚁区系进行了研究和综述。1840年在利雅得省共采集到93种，属舒卡伊蚊属;Brachymyrmex Mayr, 1868;Brachyponera金刚砂，1900;坎波诺图斯·迈尔，1861年;心髁，1869;卡雷巴拉·韦斯特伍德，1840;《目录》，1850年;隆德火葬场，1831;Dorylus Fabricius, 1793;Hypoponera Santschi, 1938;Lepisiota Santschi, 1926;利奥波涅拉·迈尔，1879;福瑞尔先生，1890;Monomorium Mayr, 1855;Nylanderia Emery, 1906;帕拉特里奇纳·莫茨考斯基，1863;菲多勒·韦斯特伍德，1839年;马可，1861年;Westwood, 1840;Strumigenys Smith, 1860;Syllophopsis Santschi, 1915;Tapinoma Foerster, 1850;迈尔广场(1855年);特里帕涅拉·史密斯，1852年;和Trichomyrmex Mayr, 1865年。首次在沙特阿拉伯记录到的8个物种分别是:Cataglyphis fisheri Sharaf & Aldawood, 2015;《印度地名》(Forel, 1894);双冠状心髁突，2003;C. minminor Forel, 1899;C. melana Seifert, 2003;C.也门Collingwood & Agosti 1996;毛蝇(Forel, 1902);和r.s oscaris (Forel, 1894)。利雅得省目前已知的物种总数已从96种增加到109种。分属25属5亚科。沙特阿拉伯王国(KSA)目前已知的物种总数从237种增加到245种。如果有的话，还提供物种生态学和生物学的说明。一种新组合，Trichomyrmex barbatulum (Mayr, 1877)梳子。11月被提议。
