Genus Pseudomyrmex Lund View in CoL

Ants in this predominantly Neotropical genus nest in hollow dead twigs and other preformed plant cavities. Two species occur in California: P. apache Creighton is widespread at middle and low elevations within the California floristic province, often nesting in branches of manzanita ( Arctostaphylos ), while P. pallidus (F. Smith) is confined to southern California.

Species identification: Ward (1985b). Additional references: Creighton (1953b, 1954), Peters (1997), Starks et al. (1998), Ward (1989a, 1990, 1993).
