Notes

The common names of this species were applied to an ant introduced into the USA and originally identified as Technomyrmex albipes. It has now been shown that this was a misidentification, and the insect concerned is T. dfficilis. The correct names now correctly apply to T. difficilis and not to T. albipes.
