Zusammenfassung: | sp. n. and
sp. n., two new ant species of the extinct genus
Dlussky et Radchenko, are described from the Rovno amber (Late Eocene, Priabonian, 34–38 Ma).
(described based on the male and gyne) differs from the previously known species of this genus by the shorter propodeal spines and by the sculpture of the head and mesosoma.
is described based on the single worker and differs from all known
species by the punctated head, mesosoma and waist, by another shape of the petiole, by the shorter propodeal spines, and by the distinctly shorter antennal scape. Additional data on the record of
(Mayr) and
Dlussky et Radchenko is provided. A key for the identification of six known
species is compiled. The character of the forewing venation of the male and gyne of
supports our idea about relation of this genus and the genus
Mayr, and placing
to the tribe Formicoxenini. |
