Strumigenys missouriensis Smith 1931
No full textStrumigenys missouriensis Smith, 1931 Distribution. USA; in eastern USA from Florida to Virginia, west to Arkansas. Comments. Strumigenys missouriensis probably represents a complex of species is an extremely wide-ranging and morphologically variable species. Because it is most morphologically similar to S. lucky and occurs in sympatry, I have included it here and in the key but not in the synoptic list of western USA species. A more thorough taxonomic treatment of S. missouriensis across its range is needed.Published as part of Booher, Douglas B., 2021, The ant genus Strumigenys Smith, 1860 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in western North America North of Mexico, pp. 201-248 in Zootaxa 5061 (2) on page 236, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5061.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/564937
Strumigenys superstes Booher & Uhey 2020
No full textStrumigenys superstes Booher & Uhey 2020 Distribution. USA; Arizona. Comments. This species is a most unusual Strumigenys and is known from a single dealate queen collected in a pitfall trap between Flagstaff and the Grand Canyon between late June and mid-July. Strumigenys superstes belongs to the excisa species-group, a morphologically distinct clade of shiny short-mandible species that once belonged in the genus Glamyromyrmex (Booher et al. 2021; Booher & Uhey 2020). Strumigenys superstes was collected in an undisturbed arid pinyon-juniper woodland on the Colorado Plateau. All other excisa species-group members have ranges in the Neotropics.Published as part of Booher, Douglas B., 2021, The ant genus Strumigenys Smith, 1860 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in western North America North of Mexico, pp. 201-248 in Zootaxa 5061 (2) on page 245, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5061.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/564937
Strumigenys pulchella Emery 1895
No full textStrumigenys pulchella Emery, 1895 Distribution. Canada to USA; in eastern USA from Florida to New York and west to Iowa; in western USA occurs in Kansas, and Texas. Comments. Strumigenys pulchella is a wide-ranging eastern to midwestern species often found nesting in hardwood stumps and rotting fallen branches. In Kansas, Dubois (1985) reports a colony collected in rotten wood in a deciduous forest. The Field Museum houses a specimen from North Dakota (FMHD 0000 050 802), but this specimen’s collection data were digitized erroneously. This specimen was collected by H. Dybas in 1950 near Station Lake, Porter County, Indiana. There are no validated records of Strumigenys in North Dakota.

Strumigenys angulata Smith 1931
No full text<i>Strumigenys angulata</i> Smith, 1931 <p> <b>Distribution</b>. USA; widespread in eastern USA from Florida to Illinois, west to Missouri; in western USA occurs in Oklahoma.</p> <p> <b>Comments</b>. This species is morphologically most similar to <i>S. pergandei,</i> the only other non-trap jaw species with elongate mandibles in North America. <i>Strumigenys angulata</i> is uncommonly encountered over most of its range but is fairly common in upland hardwood and mixed pine and hardwood forests in areas of northern Mississippi (MacGown <i>et al.</i> 2012). Although it has been collected numerous times across the Ozarks in Arkansas, I know of only a single specimen from the western region collected near Le Flore, Oklahoma by W.G. Carter (examined by Bolton [2000]). There is a mistakenly reported Texas record (Forster 2003:144). Forster incorrectly summarized distribution records from Bolton (2000); Bolton did not report any Texas specimens of <i>S. angulata</i>.</p>Published as part of <i>Booher, Douglas B., 2021, The ant genus Strumigenys Smith, 1860 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in western North America North of Mexico, pp. 201-248 in Zootaxa 5061 (2)</i> on page 221, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5061.2.1, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/5649379">http://zenodo.org/record/5649379</a>
Strumigenys chiricahua AZ
No full textStrumigenys chiricahua (Ward, 1988) Distribution. USA; Arizona Comments. This species is known from two collections and possibly a third. The holotype worker was collected in a Berlesate sample of concentrated leaf litter from an oak woodland, and a colony of more than 20 workers was extracted from a rotten root in a juniper woodland. Both validated collections were made in August at or near the Southwestern Research Station in the Chiricahua Mountains in Arizona. A third possible specimen is an alate queen tentatively identified from images. This specimen was collected by Gary Alpert in a Malaise trap 16 km southeast of Flagstaff in Walnut Canyon National Monument, Coconino County, in the bottom of a ravine (BugGuide 2020a). Material examined: USA, Arizona, Coconino Co., Walnut Canyon National Monument, 16 km SE Flagstaff, 35.171583, -111.513917, 1946 m, 22 Aug 2017, ex.
