Pseudomyrmex lizeri (Santschi 1922a) . NEW STATUS.

Pseudomyrma flavidula st. lizeri Santschi 1922a: 346 .

Pseudomyrmex flavidulus lizeri (Santschi) . Kusnezov 1953: 214.

Pseudomyrmex lizeri is known from a pair of localities in eastern Paraguay where it is locally sympatric with the common P. flavidulus . There is no reason to consider the two forms conspecific. In Paraguay, Pseudomyrmex lizeri is a noticeably larger ant than P. flavidulus and has a disproportionately broader head. I have not examined the type material of this species, but Phil Ward identified the Paraguayan specimens and concurs with a change in status for P. lizeri (Ward, pers comm.).
