Short description: none


M. gulosa was designated as the type species of Myrmecia in 1840.[1]

Myrmecia is a genus of small to large venomous ants commonly known as bulldog ants or jack jumper ants. The genus was first established by Danish zoologist Johan Christian Fabricius in 1804 and is placed in the subfamily Myrmeciinae of the family Formicidae. There are currently 94 described species in this genus, 93 of which are valid and identifiable.[2][3] Almost all species are endemic to Australia and can be found nowhere else, with an exception of a single species found in New Caledonia.

Myrmecia aberrans Myrmecia Aberrans 092013 casent0907073 p 1 high.jpg Forel[4] 1900 Specimens of this species are only known from workers collected in South Australia. The average length is around 12 millimetres (0.47 in), with reddish-yellow mandibles, clypeus and antennae. Its head, mesonotum and parts of its thorax, postpetiole and gaster are black. In contrast to other species, the mandibles are noticeably short.[5]
Myrmecia acuta Myrmecia acuta casent0902811 p 1 high.jpg Ogata & Taylor[6] 1991 Relatively small species that is found in Western Australia. It has a close resemblance to M. swalei, but it can be distinguished by its higher density of pilosity, its pointed labral process and its more inflated mesosoma. Its body is bicoloured, but most of it is dark brown or black. The mesosoma and postpetiole are reddish brown, and its mandibles are yellow. The mandibles are longer than the head.[6]
Myrmecia analis Myrmecia analis casent0914014 p 1 high.jpg Mayr[7] 1862 M. analis is a large species that is found in Western Australia and some of the eastern states, based on collected workers and queens. Males are unknown. Workers measure 18 to 20 millimetres (0.71 to 0.79 in) and dealated queens 20 to 22 millimetres (0.79 to 0.87 in). The head, node, postpetiole and thorax is coloured red, and the mandibles and legs are reddish yellow. The scapes and gaster are brown and black respectively.[8]
Myrmecia apicalis Myrmecia apicalis casent0903788 p 1 high.jpg Emery[9] 1883
Myrmecia arnoldi Myrmecia arnoldi casent0914017 p 1 high.jpg Clark[10] 1951 M. arnoldi is only known from workers collected in Western Australia. It is a large species, measuring 18 to 20 millimetres (0.71 to 0.79 in) with a black head and gaster, a brown femora, node, postpetiole and thorax, and yellow mandibles. The antennae, mandibles, tarsi and tibiae are yellow or reddish yellow.[10]

Myrmecia auriventris Myrmecia auriventris casent0914015 p 1 high.jpg Mayr[12] 1870 M. auriventris is only known from colonies observed in Queensland. Workers vary in length, measuring 18 to 20 millimetres (0.71 to 0.79 in). The males measure 15.5 millimetres (0.61 in) and queens are unknown. The colour and pilosity between males and workers are similar, but the two castes can be distinguished from the workers by the size of the mandibles and its finer body sculpture. The gaster, head, mesonotum, postpetiole and pronotum are black. The metanotum, epinotum and node is red, and the antennae, coxae, mandibles and parts of the femora and tarsi are reddish yellow.[13]

Myrmecia brevinoda Myrmecia brevinoda casent0907079 p 1 high.jpg Forel[14] 1910 M. brevinoda is a giant Myrmecia species that is known from New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria. It is also the only known species that was introduced outside its natural geographical range, with colonies found in New Zealand.[lower-alpha 1] M. brevinoda may exhibit polymorphism among workers; workers of this species are among the largest ants in the world, measuring 13 to 37 millimetres (0.51 to 1.46 in). The queens measure 27 to 31 millimetres (1.06 to 1.22 in) and males are 20 to 22 millimetres (0.79 to 0.87 in) long. The ant is yellowish red, with the antennae, legs and mandibles lighter yellowish. The gaster is black. It resembles M. forficata in size and colour, but the two species can be distinguished by the form of the node.[16][17]

Myrmecia gulosa Myrmecia gulosa casent0103310 profile 1.jpg Fabricius[44] 1775 M. gulosa is found throughout the eastern states and territories of Australia. It is a large species, with workers measuring 14 to 26 millimetres (0.55 to 1.02 in). The queens are the largest at 27 to 29 millimetres (1.06 to 1.14 in) and males 17 to 21 millimetres (0.67 to 0.83 in). The colour of the queen is similar to that of a worker, but can be distinguished by its larger size and abundant pilosity. Most of the body is yellowish red, but the posterior margin of the first segment of the gaster is black. All of the apical segments are also black. Unlike the males, whose mandibles are short, the mandibles of the worker and queen are almost as long as the head.[45]
