摘要
描述了印度西高止山脉的三种新物种:T. alii、T. binghami和T. hitagarciai。此外，还提供了该组其余6个已知物种的信息，包括T. belgaense Forel, 1902, T. keralense Sheela & Narendran, 1998, T. pilosum Emery, 1893, T. tortuosum Roger, 1863, T. urbanii Bolton, 1977和T. yerburyi Forel, 1902，以及该组所有分类群的钥匙。tortuosum群是该物种群中最大的，其工蜂具有来自该地区的11节状天线。讨论了该物种的形态和类群亲缘关系，以及它们的分布。然而，由于采样的限制和分类知识的不足，实际的多样性尚未得到适当的探索。
Taxonomic Overview of the Tetramorium tortuosum Group (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) in India and Sri Lanka, with Descriptions of Three New Species from the Western Ghats Biodiversity Hotspot
Three new species in the Tetramorium tortuosum group, T. alii, T. binghami and T. hitagarciai, are described and illustrated from the Western Ghats, India. In addition, information on the remaining six know species in this group — T. belgaense Forel, 1902, T. keralense Sheela & Narendran, 1998, T. pilosum Emery, 1893, T. tortuosum Roger, 1863, T. urbanii Bolton, 1977 and T. yerburyi Forel, 1902 — is provided along with the key to all the taxa in the group. The tortuosum group is the largest of the species group with workers characterized by 11-segmented antenna from the region. Morphology and group affinities of the species are discussed, along with their distribution. However, due to sampling constraints and still insufficient taxonomic knowledge the actual diversity is yet to be properly explored.
期刊介绍：
Annales Zoologici Fennici publishes mainly original research reports, but also in-depth reviews and commentaries on all aspects of animal ecology and evolution, and fields related to them. Our aim is to promote papers which focus on the interactions among various components in the past and present environments by using integrative and cross-disciplinary approaches. This may be achieved by employing tools from different fields of research, such as (but not restricted to):
ecology and paleoecology,
molecular ecology and phylogeography,
conservation biology, human-induced contemporary evolution and wildlife management,
animal behaviour and interactions (including recognition systems and mechanisms),
paleontology (except systematics and taxonomy) and evolution,
bioenergetics.
