Hosoishi S, Yamane Sk, Sokh H, Discovery of a new phragmotic species of the ant genus Carebara Westwood, 1840 (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) from Cambodia, Journal of Hymenoptera Research, 2022.06, Several phragmotic species in the ant genus Carebara Westwood, 1840 with a cephalic shield are known from the Old World, but species with an anteriorly truncated head seem to be unknown until now. A new species, resembling the phragmotic workers of the ant genus Colobopsis, is here described as Carebara colobopsis Hosoishi & Yamane, sp. nov., based on major and minor worker found in Cambodia. This new species is similar to Carebara acutispina (Xu) and C. obtusidenta (Xu) in some important characters, but distinguished from the latter two by distinct metanotum and deep groove in front of metanotal disc in the major worker, and longer head and deep metanotal groove in the minor worker. This is the first confirmed record of a truncated phragmotic head in the major worker of the genus Carebara. We propose the Carebara acutispina species group to include all the three species, present a diagnosis of this group, and provide a key to species based on the major and minor worker castes..

14. Shingo Hosoishi, Kazuo Ogata, Cryptic diversity in the widespread Asian ant Crematogaster rothneyi (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) inferred from morphological and genetic evidence, Zoological Studies, 2019.06, The myrmicine species Crematogaster rothneyi is one of the most widely distributed ants in Asia, but it
has rarely been collected in the field. Its distribution range covers South and Southeast Asia, extending
approximately 5,000 km from India in the west to Sulawesi in the east. Despite this wide distribution
range, C. rothneyi has been treated as a single taxonomic species, and no combined morphological or
molecular analysis has been conducted to assess whether any intraspecific variation exists. The sequence
divergences of C. rothneyi populations, mainly obtained from Southeast Asia, were investigated by
analyzing 387 bp and 175 bp sequences of the 12S ribosomal RNA and cytochrome c oxidase subunit
(COI) genes, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the C. rothneyi populations were separated
into three groups: group I from Thailand and Cambodia, group II from Bangladesh and Myanmar, and
group III from Krakatau and Sulawesi. Groups II and III were recovered as a single clade, sister to group
I. The interspecific divergences were 7.3% to 8.5% for 12S and 14.5% to 23.3% for COI between most C.
rothneyi specimens and Cambodian specimens, while divergence for 12S was 3.5% between Thai and
Cambodian specimens. The Thai specimens are not morphologically differentiated, and are considered
conspecific to C. rothneyi. We describe the Cambodian series as a new species, Crematogaster yaharai
sp. nov., based on unique antennal morphology and mesosomal sculpture patterns with molecular
evidence. Crematogaster rothneyi civa Forel, 1902 is synonymized under C. rothneyi. Crematogaster
rothneyi is widespread and has sister species, suggesting recent diversification within the Indochinese
Peninsula..

Mamunur Rahman and Ogata, K., Domatia of the ant-plant Hydnophytum formicarum (Rubiaceae) captured as nests by two widespread ant species, Tapinoma melanocephalum and Tetramorium nipponense (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)., Entomological News, 2018.06, 東南アジアにおいて漢方薬にも用いられる観葉植物Hydnophytum formicarumはアリ植物としても知られ、特定のアリが共生関係を持つ。カンボジアにおいて森林伐採が進行する地域で地面に落ちた当アリ植物が本来のアリではなく、外来アリのTapinoma melanocephalumと広域分布種のTetramorium nipponenseに利用されていることが明らかにされた。広域分布種のT. nipponenseについてはDNA情報を取得して日本産の集団と比較し、同じ種であることが明らかにされた。アリとアリ植物の関係は強固であるが、森林伐採による環境変化はこれらの広域分布種が侵入しやすくなる状態を生み出していることを示唆した。.
