Biology:Leptanilloides
From HandWiki
Leptanilloides is a genus of ants in the subfamily Dorylinae.[1] Leptanilloides is an uncommonly collected genus with subterranean habits in the New World Andean and sub-Andean tropics.[2]
Taxonomy
With cryptic and eyeless worker ants, the genus was included in the ant subfamily Cerapachyinae[3][4] until the establishment of a separate subfamily, Leptanilloidinae,[5] hypothesized as the sister group to the Cerapachyinae and all other members of the dorylomorphs.[2] However, they were synonymized with the previous dorylomorph subfamilies (including the Leptanilloidinae) under Dorylinae.[6]
