Elaeomyrmex is an extinct genus of ant in the subfamily Dolichoderinae and containing two species. The fossils were first described from the Florissant Formation, Colorado in 1930.[1]
Only the workers and queens have been properly studied, and it shows the workers were similar in appearance to the queens, except the queens were the largest of the colony.[1]
