Abstract

The species of the myrmicine ant genera Ochetomyrmex and Tranopelta (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) are revised. Both genera are currently put in the tribe Ochetomyrmecini.

Both genera are confined to Neotropical Region with the following species: Ochetomyrmex semipolitus Mayr (= Ochetomyrmex mayri Forel new synonymy; = Ochetomyrmex subpolitus (sensu Wheeler) new synonymy; = Ochetomyrmex argentinus (Kusnezov) new synonymy; = Ochetomyrmex bolivianus (Kusnezov) new synonymy), Ochetomyrmex neopolitus Fernández sp.n. (= Ochetomyrmex subpolitus sensu Kempf), Tranopelta gilva Mayr (= Monomorium amblyops Emery new synonymy; = Monomorium heyeri Forel new synonymy; = Tranopelta gilva brunnea Forel; = Tranopelta heyeri Forel; = Tranopelta heyeri columbica Forel new synonymy; = Tranopelta gilva albida Mann; = Tranopelta amblyops Emery; Tranopelta gilva amblyops Emery) and Tranopelta subterranea (Mann) (= Monomorium (Mitara) subterraneus Mann).
