Aphaenogaster ichnusa Santschi, 1925, bona species, and Redescription of Aphaenogaster subterranea (Latreille, 1798) (Hymenoptera, Formicidae)

Abstract: IntroductionAphaenogaster subterranea (Latreille, 1798) is considered a common species in Europe. The type specimens were collected around Brive-la-Gaillarde, Corrèze, France. The identification of specimens from France was not considered problematic. However, specimens from Corsica and the Mediterranean coast show morphological characters that differ noticeably from those of specimens from the rest of France (including Brive-la-Gaillarde). These characters are (i) shorter and more triangular propodeal spines,… Show more

“…We re-identified worker specimens belonging to the subterranea species group found in the authors’ personal collections and the Natural History Museum of Milan. Specimen identification was performed using the morphological characters illustrated by Galkowski et al (2019) : A. ichnusa differs from A.…”

“… subterranea . Their separation as two distinct species was only recently demonstrated based on worker morphology and mitochondrial DNA ( Galkowski et al 2019 ). The recent recognition implies that reliable data over the distribution of the two species is scarce in the sympatric range, where they were historically confused.…”
