List of ant genera (alphabetical)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is a thusfar incomplete list of worldwide ant genera. Those which are no longer considered current nomenclature are marked with an asterisk (*).
Genera are often named after famous myrmecologists - e.g. Donisthorpea was named to honour Horace Donisthorpe, Forelius for Auguste Forel, Janetia for Charles Janet, Wheeleriella for William M. Wheeler. See the list of notable myrmecologists for a compilation of these people.
