Pachycondyla
Template:Short description Template:Automatic taxobox
Pachycondyla is a ponerine genus of ants found in the Neotropics.
Distribution
Pachycondyla is currently distributed from southern United States to northern Argentina,[1] but some fossil species (e.g. P. eocenica and P. lutzi) are found in Europe.
Species
The genus formerly contained hundreds of species, most of them belonging to at the time junior synonyms of Pachycondyla. While revising the ponerines, Schmidt & Shattuck (2014) revived many of the former synonyms, leaving only eleven species in Pachycondyla. They were not able to place some species with certainty, and left more than twenty species incertae sedis in Pachycondyla, acknowledging that "this placement is undoubtedly incorrect".[1]
