About this book

This guide provides identification keys to all the living ant subfamilies and genera, presented in alphabetical order and separated by zoogeographical region. Written by one of the world's leading ant taxonomists, it is intended to update and revise the keys found in Holldobler and Wilson's Ants. Designed for amateurs as well as professionals, this text includes information on the function and use of identification keys, instructions for preparing specimens, and a glossary. For each described subfamily, there are classifications of all genera, notes on broad distribution, and a list of references to all species-rank publications. There are also short summaries of extinct subfamilies, plus full checklist of every name ever proposed in ant classification, from family to subgenus.
