03D287F63B183A1856AAFB90FAC78C45.taxon	discussion	Biometric and chaetotaxy data concern nest means of 3 workers, because these values show less overlap than the individual ones. Cataglyphis piliscapa and C. italica are very similar biometrically, and at present time the available sample of C. italica doesn’t allow a precise differentiation. For example, the lower PoOc in C. italica noted by Emery (1906) seems a promising discriminating index, but shows overlap with the values in C. piliscapa. The characters in the key were noted by Santschi (1929) and Agosti & Collingwood (1987) and show accordance with the few workers of C. italica inspected (n = 3).	en	García, Fede, Cuesta-Segura, Amonio David, Espadaler, Xavier, Vila, Roger, Menchetti, Mattia (2026): Description of a new desert-ant belonging to the Cataglyphis cursor group (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) from the Iberian Peninsula.

03D287F63B163A1356AAFAAFFD9789B3.taxon	etymology	Etymology: We use mater, a feminine Latin substantive meaning “ mother ” used as a noun in apposition. This species is dedicated to the mothers of all people dedicated to science, for their support, even though in many cases they do not understand very well what their children work on. In a special way, to the mothers of the authors and especially to María Nieves Segura Diez, who passed away during the course of this investigation (June 2023), for her unconditional support. Mater was the affectionate nickname for Nieves since ADC-S began using scientific names in his degree in biology.	en	García, Fede, Cuesta-Segura, Amonio David, Espadaler, Xavier, Vila, Roger, Menchetti, Mattia (2026): Description of a new desert-ant belonging to the Cataglyphis cursor group (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) from the Iberian Peninsula.

03D287F63B163A1356AAFAAFFD9789B3.taxon	description	Worker General habitus and size resembling those of the other C. cursor group species from Western Europe (Tab. I) (Fig. 6), defined in Agosti (1990). Head, mesosoma, coxae, petiole and gaster black or dark brown, clearer in the rear of pronotum suture and rear of gaster tergites. With greenish sheens depending on the light in live specimens. Appendices brown, with the distal femora, antennae, tibiae and tarsi clearer. General appearance is moderately shiny, with an imbricate microsculpture making it duller at big magnifications. On the front, microsculpture is more longitudinal. Chaetotaxy relatively sparse, with some long hairs on the occipital border of the head, the profile of the mesosoma and gaster (Tab. I). Pubescence sparse over the whole body, appearing more dense on the lower parts of propodeum, mesonotum and coxae. Head slightly longer than wide, with a quadrate appearance (Fig. 7). Occipital margin straight or slightly concave. Genae profile slightly convex. Mandibles with five teeth, being the apical more prominent and being the others smaller towards the rear. Clypeus without marked sculpture, sometimes with a small central carina, anterior border often slightly notched. Maxillary palps with 3 rd and 4 th segments shorter than 5 th and 6 th together, 3 rd maxillary palp segment round in section (Fig. 8). Three ocelli present. Eyes well developed, situated in the posterior half of the head and protruding a bit from the cephalic border. Pronotum and mesonotum slightly convex in lateral view (Fig. 9). Mesonotum and mesopleuron fused. Propodeal spiracle elongated. Metapleural gland opening surrounded by short hairs. Petiole is high in lateral view, with parallel borders in the lower part (Fig. 9). Dorsally to the spiracle, the anterior border is inclined and slightly curved towards the rear. Pilosity on legs is restricted to some setae in the flexor sides of femora, distal tibiae and tarsi. Gaster shiny, with a few marked transversal microsculpture. Pubescence sparse. Acidopore surrounded by long and curved hairs. Following the classification by Wilson (1953), C. mater sp. nov. is an allometric polymorphic species, with a high difference in worker size and allometric relations inside the same colony, but without discrete castes (Fig. 10). Nor can discrete castes be observed in the distribution by size frequencies, as they do appear in societies with such a system (Espadaler et al., 1990) (Fig. 11). Gyne Overall appearance as the worker, but for the bigger size and the structure of the mesosoma sclerites (Fig. 12). Head mostly as in the worker caste, but with some biometrical differences, being more elongated and with shorter scapes (Tab. I). Ocelli wider than in workers (Fig. 12 a). Scutum narrower than pronotum in dorsal view (Fig. 12 c). In lateral view, not very prominent (Fig. 12 b). Scutellum of trapezoidal shape (Fig. 12 c). Wings present and well developed, although their size is relatively smaller, as usually found in the genus. Venation comparable to those in other Cataglyphis species or even other Formicine genera. Discoidal cell variable in size and sometimes lacking. Petiole structure is similar to the worker in lateral view (Fig. 12 b), but wider in dorsal view (Fig. 12 c). Gaster appearance as in workers. Chaetotaxy similar to the worker in the head, petiole, gaster and appendixes (Tab. I). On the mesosoma, long hairs are present on the posterior fringe of pronotum, scutum, scutellum and back of the propodeum. Propodeum covered by long, whitish pubescence. Male Colour pattern as in female castes, with hind tibiae usually darker. Duller, with more marked polygonal microsculpture on head, mesosoma, petiole and gaster. Chaeta sparse on the whole body, except for the gaster sternites. Head longer than wide, triangular in shape with the clypeal width distinctly smaller than the maximum width (Fig. 13 a). Mandible elongated, with the masticatory border undulated, bearing only an apical tooth. Antenna 13 - segmented. Scape long and robust, wider and straighter than in females. Flagellum shorter than the other funicular segments, which are elongated. Eyes well developed and prominent. Ocelli slightly prominent. In most specimens, the clypeus lacks a central carina and the anterior clypeal border is convex, sometimes being slightly notched. Palpi structure as in female castes. Scutum more developed than in gynes, wider and higher (Figs. 13 b & c). Scutellum triangular, with a wide base. In lateral view, dorsal profile of scutum and scutellum rounded (Fig. 13 b). Wings as in gynes. Legs long, with arolia of small size in the tarsi. Claws long and slightly curved. Non pectinated spurs are present in the middle and posterior tibiae. There are almost no erect setae on legs, but for some bristles in the distal parts of the flexor side of tibiae and the whole longitude of tarsi. Petiole high and squamiform, with rounded profiles (Fig. 13 b). In anterior or posterior views, slightly wider above the spiracle. Dorsal profile gently notched. Gaster high and stout. Gaster tergites mostly bare, with some specimens showing some erect hairs on the last segment. Sternites with many long sinuous hairs. Genitalia big and prominent, directed downwards (Fig. 14 a & c). Species diagnosis A confusion of C. mater sp. nov. with species belonging to other Cataglyphis groups species may hardly occur after inspection under the stereomicroscope, taking into account the differences in the shape of the petiole and the maxillary palps (Agosti, 1990). At plain sight in the field, however, Cataglyphis iberica (Emery, 1906), belonging to the albicans group (Agosti, 1990), could be confused with C. mater sp. nov. due to wide sympatry (Fig. 1) and the small dark workers of both species. However, C. iberica workers use to assume a posture in which they raise their gaster and usually have a dense silver-like pubescence on the lateral mesosoma that is visible at naked eye. Gynes of C. iberica have a higher petiole than the workers, resembling somewhat that of C. mater sp. nov. However, C. iberica gynes are bigger (CS 2,050 - 2,375 microns, n = 8) compared with C. mater sp. nov. (Tab. I) and the mesosoma bears a more prominent scutum. Males of C. iberica are far more hairy, specially on scutum, propodeum and underside of the head. Cataglyphis floricola Tinaut, 1993 and Cataglyphis tartessica Amor & Ortega, 2014 are more coincidental with C. mater sp. nov. in general behaviour in the field and petiole structure, but their restricted distributions in southernmost Iberia and the bicolor pattern in C. tartessica makes a confusion improbable in most of the known geographical range (Amor & Ortega, 2014). Within the Western European C. cursor group members, the overall habitus and biometry of the different species is highly similar in all castes (Tab. I). However, C. cursor is the more deviant species due to the increased chaetotaxy (Tab. I). Therefore, the following diagnoses are referred to C. piliscapa, the morphologically and geographically closest species to C. mater sp. nov. - Workers; Cataglyphis mater sp. nov. and C. piliscapa are highly similar in biometrical values, with the exception of the relative size of the head (CS / ML) which is higher in C. mater sp. nov. independently of the size even when the removal of allometric variance is not applied (Fig. 4 b). The almost hairless gular area of C. mater sp. nov. is the more visible character allowing the discrimination with C. piliscapa if nest means are considered (Tab. I). - Gynes; even though the overall appearance is highly similar in both species, relative to C. mater sp. nov., C. piliscapa gynes have an increased chaetotaxy (nGu 15 ± 8.438 [6, 25]; nOcc 14.5 ± 6.285 [5, 22] (n = 6), compare with Tab. I), even more prominent than in workers. In any case, given the colony reproduction through fission in this group, it is unlikely to find isolated gynes. - Males; the genitalia of C. mater sp. nov. is very distinct when compared with males of C. piliscapa or C. cursor. The two latter species share a similar structure. Compared with C. piliscapa, in C. mater the squamula in caudal view lacks a medial elongation (Fig. 14 c, compare with Fig. 14 d). Stipe shorter, with tips rounded in lateral view (Fig. 14 a, compare with Fig. 14 b) and the rounded lobe in the base is wider in caudal view (Fig. 14 c, compare with Fig. 14 d). Sagitta shorter (Figs 14 a & c compare with Figs. 14 b & d).	en	García, Fede, Cuesta-Segura, Amonio David, Espadaler, Xavier, Vila, Roger, Menchetti, Mattia (2026): Description of a new desert-ant belonging to the Cataglyphis cursor group (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) from the Iberian Peninsula.

03D287F63B163A1356AAFAAFFD9789B3.taxon	distribution	Distribution and ecology At present, C. mater sp. nov. has a wide distribution in the northern Iberian plateau (autonomous community of Castilla y León) and a few records scattered across southern Spain (Fig. 1). The known altitude range is of 1312 m, inhabiting between 610 m a. s. l. in Haro (La Rioja) and 1922 m a. s. l. in Puerto de Peña Negra (Ávila). The new species occupies preferentially open sunny habitats with some degree of bare soil exposed (Fig. 15). Even when the nests are found somewhat hidden among the grass vegetation or in forested areas, such as pine forests or holm oak forests, there are large suitable foraging areas nearby. It is also found in anthropized habitats such as agricultural fields, unpaved parking lots or urban parks.	en	García, Fede, Cuesta-Segura, Amonio David, Espadaler, Xavier, Vila, Roger, Menchetti, Mattia (2026): Description of a new desert-ant belonging to the Cataglyphis cursor group (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) from the Iberian Peninsula.

03D287F63B163A1356AAFAAFFD9789B3.taxon	discussion	Notes on natural history In its main distribution area, C. mater sp. nov. has a similar habitat preference of that of C. iberica. At 23 sites (20 localities) (Fig. 1) the two species were found sympatrically, sometimes with nests a couple of metres apart. When they feel threatened in the nest by our presence, both species stay at the entrance and stop coming out to forage, although, after a while, C. mater sp. nov. comes out again. When the nests are disturbed, C. iberica retreats and hides, while C. mater sp. nov. has a more aggressive behaviour, as explained before in Ethology. This behaviour also occurs in the resting period, and it was very important to extend the sampling sessions, sometimes even at night, since when the Cataglyphis were resting and the nests openings were located, blowing at the entrance was enough to discriminate the C. mater sp. nov. nests without having to excavate them. The activity levels of the new species depend more on the temperature than on the time of day. In warm weather, many workers were actively moving about, but if the temperature was extremely high, only a few workers were active, primarily seeking shade. In Golpejar de la Sobarriba (León), on several nights with temperatures about 25 ºC, the nest entrances showed significant excavation activity. In that same location, a nest was excavated at 9: 20 a. m. (Tab. III), and during the excavation, workers were seen returning with prey. However, on colder days in many other locations, no activity was observed until much later, when temperatures rose. For example, in Pozoantiguo (Zamora), at 12: 40 p. m. with a temperature of 20 ºC, the nests were still closed. Similarly, nest closure was variable in the afternoon. On the same sampling day in Villada (Palencia), the nests were not active at 6: 39 p. m., but then in Sahag ̇ n (León), the workers were active at 6: 56 p. m., and in another area of the same locality, there was no activity at 7: 15 p. m. On one occasion, in Palacios de Goda (Ávila), with a temperature of 30 ºC, active workers were found at 9: 15 p. m. The typical nest of C. mater sp. nov. (Fig. 16) has a single oval-shaped entrance surrounded by a small, low-lying crater made of excavated substrate extracted by workers. There is a single main gallery, which initially runs parallel to the ground surface for about 2 - 15 cm and then sinks down into a depth of 20 - 45 cm, almost always perpendicularly, until it ends in one or two main chambers (Fig. 16 a). There are always one or more surface chambers where there are usually larvae, pupae and fresh remains of prey, but they can also be old chambers filled with remains of prey and molts. In the middle part of the main gallery there may be one or more small chambers, which are absent if the nest is small. This structure is similar in all types of excavated soil and is only modified in those under medium or large stones, which can vary the route of the main gallery. The 22 excavated nests (Tab. III) showed a colony size that varied between 40 and 700 workers (San Martín de Rubiales II and Vadocondes I), with an average number of 335 workers. They can potentially exceed 1000 individuals (Nava de Roa III) given the number of larvae and pupae. The emergence of sexuals occurs between June and early July and their mating and dispersal occurs on the ground (Tab. III) (Appendix I). In Vadocondes (Burgos) on 12 - VII- 2020, after a hailstorm and with good temperature, about ten males were observed running nimbly along the path. When attempts were made to capture them, they made short flights, similar to the behaviour of Cicindela L., 1758 beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae). One nest was excavated that day (Vadocondes I, Tab. III, Fig. 16) contained 27 males and produced many more in captivity from the collected immatures. In another sampling in San Esteban de Gormaz (Soria), carried out on 28 - VI- 2021, between 5: 30 and 7: 10 p. m., with a temperature of about 24 ° C, 13 males and two winged queens were collected. The specimens appeared running sporadically, especially when the sky clouded over. The observed diet of C. mater sp. nov. is quite similar to that of C. piliscapa (Retana et al., 1986), combining both scavenging (Fig. 6 b & d) with visits to nectaries. During the excavation of the nests, some surface chambers were found to be used as kitchen middens, filled with remains made up of a great diversity of arthropod species belonging to many groups, so we can deduce that C. mater sp. nov. is a generalist scavenger species. Remarkable findings in those chambers were a complete specimen of Copium Thunberg, 1822 (Hemiptera: Tingidae) in a nest in Montejo de la Vega de la Serrezuela (Segovia) and Aphaenogaster males with which the first morning foragers returned to the nest in Golpejar de la Sobarriba (León), some of them alive. In Belver de los Montes (Zamora) C. mater sp. nov. was found sipping on the nectaries of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.), in the same way that a year earlier C. piliscapa was found in Narbonne and Nîmes (France). Observations of interspecific interactions with other ant species have been scarce during the activity period, perhaps due to the low number of active species observed during the hours of maximum insolation. It was not even seen interacting with C. iberica, which is active during the same periods. However, the observation made in Venialbo (Zamora) at the beginning of the morning is very remarkable, where a foraging trail of Messor capitatus (Latreille, 1798) passed by the entrance of one nest of C. mater sp. nov. where they would occasionally go to explore and then continue. At the entrance of the nest, the Cataglyphis were active but without coming out, only blocking the entrance in a peculiar way. By sucking hard with the insect aspirator at the mouth of the nest, 11 workers and two large heads of Messor were collected. From this we deduced that the workers of C. mater sp. nov. possibly had Messor heads exposed to the outside to stop the M. capitatus that tried to explore the entrance, thus preventing them from entering the nest. An observation involving a kleptobiotic relationship was made in Vadocondes (Burgos) where workers of the thief ants Solenopsis sp. were found in one of the surface chambers of a C. mater sp. nov. nest. Historical remarks of the C. cursor group in Iberia Previous records of the Cataglyphis cursor group in the Iberian Peninsula south from Ebro river must be assigned to Cataglyphis mater sp. nov. It has previously been reported from diverse localities under different names, following the taxonomic changes discussed in the Introduction. Myrmecocystus cursor (Fonscolombe, 1846) was cited from Gibraltar (Saunders, 1890), Huévar (Sevilla) and Hornachuelos (Córdoba) (Medina, 1891), Puerto Real (Cádiz) (Medina, 1903), and Calamocha (Teruel) (Dusmet, 1906). Furthermore, in this latest work Dusmet comments on the coexistence of Myrmecocystus n. sp., a species yet to be described by Emery based on a male from Calamocha. Cataglyphis cursor v. tibialis Bondroit, 1918 was recorded from Sierra de Guadarrama (Santschi, 1925), and from Salamanca (Santschi, 1932). Collingwood & Yarrow (1969) cited Cataglyphis (Monocambus) cursor from Alhama de Murcia (Murcia), Almuradiel (Ciudad Real) and Puerto del Escudo (Santander). As Cataglyphis cursor was used in the catalogue by Ceballos (1956) and subsequently detected in Basardilla (Segovia) [assigned locality based on the coordinates provided] (Acosta Salmerón et al., 1983), and from Sierra de Guadarrama, Martínez Ibáñez (1984) found eight workers from three nests under stones and two additional isolated workers, at 1450 m, 10 - IX- 1981, in open pine forest from Peguerinos (Segovia) [assigned locality based on the map provided]. Cataglyphis cursor is also reported from Mohago pine forest, near Olmedo (Valladolid) (Gómez, 2013) and from Ardón (León) in the list of species collected during the Iberian Congress of Myrmecology, Taxomara 2018 (AIM, 2018). Finally, the specimens from Salobralejo (Ávila) and Castrillo de la Guareña (Zamora) studied by Doums et al. (2023) must be attributed to Cataglyphis mater sp. nov. The records from northeastern Catalonia belong to C. piliscapa. These populations have been recorded both as C. cursor (Cuní, 1880, 1897; Ceballos, 1956; Alsina et al., 1988; Cerdá & Retana, 1988; Cros et al., 1997; Retana & Cerdá, 2000) and C. piliscapa (Gómez et al., 2003 a, 2003 b).	en	García, Fede, Cuesta-Segura, Amonio David, Espadaler, Xavier, Vila, Roger, Menchetti, Mattia (2026): Description of a new desert-ant belonging to the Cataglyphis cursor group (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) from the Iberian Peninsula.
