Tribe Oecophyllini Emery 1895

= Oecophyllini Forel 1912

Genus: Oecophylla .

Comments. The placement of the genus Oecophylla (weaver ants) in the formicine phylogeny remains uncertain, and we continue to maintain tribal status for this taxonomically distinctive group. A sister group relationship with Gesomyrmex (Figure 1) is plausible and deserves further investigation.
