Lasius balcanicus View in CoL /distinguendus
Material: 19, 47, 131, 364, 376.
Comments: Workers of both species are very similar, definitive identification is only possible based on queen caste ( Seifert, 2007). We left the identication of the material as Lasius balcanicus /distinguendus for now because of the lack of the queen caste.
Lasius bombycina Seifert & Galkowski, 2016

Material: 283.
Lasius illyricus Zimmerman, 1935
Material: 335.
Comments: Zimmermann (1935) described L. illyricus from Crotia. Until Borowiec and Salata (2013) indication as bona species it synonymized to L. alienus and L. emarginatus (Oliver) along long years. Recently L. illyricus recorded from Turkey from very large areas ( Kiran and Karaman, 2020). On the other hand, we surprisingly found only one locality that located quite north of study area and characterized by very old (more than 100 years) Pinus sylvestris L. forest with some small Quercus L. bush and Juniperus L. It means L. illyricus not prefer to live in xerophylic areas in Central Anatolia.
Material: 17, 48, 49, 51, 57, 92, 106, 120, 121, 124, 126, 131, 133, 207, 213, 232, 272, 285, 355, 358.
Lasius neglectus Van Loon, Boomsman & Andrasfalvy, 1990
Material: 201.
Comments: Our study area was generally wild areas, but this material was collected from a city park. We believe this species is very common in Anatolian anthropogenic areas like city park.
Material: 146, 294, 314, 319, 323, 350.
Material: 246.

Comments: Our L. turcicus material showed at least 5 different morphospecies. Therefore, this species need revision at least for Turkey.

Comments: This species was known rare and endemic species in Turkey, until Iranian record was published ( Moradloo et al., 2015). Moreover our study revealed that this species is not so rare in Turkey.But our material showed two distinct morphospecies. While south populations are typical A. holtzi , they are replaced by other morphospecies towards the north of study area. Aphaenogaster holtzi was generally concolourous yellowish species. On the other hand, specimens from northern populations have brownish colour with brown mesosoma, darker head and gaster. Morover its queens also differ from typical gueens of A. holtzi by striated body and black scutellum.
Aphaenogaster maculifrons Kiran and Aktaç, 2008
Material: 202, 213, 214, 224, 225, 228, 232, 249.
Comments: This endemic species is described from Sultan Mountains which included the research area with its eastern slopes. This species belongs to A. subterranea species group and most resemble the A. subterranea (Latreille) in this group. In the research area, there are three of the members of this species group: A. holtzi , A. subterranea and A. maculifrons . In south of the research area, there are only two species from this group A. holtzi and A. maculifrons . On the other hand, towards to north after 39°N A. maculifrons leave its existence to A. subterranea . It means northern distribution of A. maculifrons in Turkey limited up the 39°N, the same thing goes for the southern distribution of A. subterranea below to this longitude in Turkey.
