Nimbamyrma Bernard 1952, nov. gen

Nimbamyrma Bernard 1952, nov. gen

Abstract

Genre: Nimbamyrma nov. gen. Ouvriere (fig. 12). Tres petite taille, yeux reduits. Tete globuleuse, largement echancree en arriere. Clypeus bidente. Aretes frontales assez longues, antennes greles, de 1 1 articles avec massue de 2. Thorax grele, ses segments tres soudes, sans separation externe entre pronotum et mesonotum. Epinotum court, avec 2 fortes dents. Deux dents inferieures, plus courtes, audessus du metasternum. Petioles tres greles, gastre petit. Mandibules larges et courtes, a 5-6 dents obtuses. Par le facies general, ce genre rappellerait certains Pheidole. Par le thorax, il ressembles aux Podomyrma, de la tribu des Myrmecinini. Mais le clypeus sans aretes et les antennes le placent chez les Pheidologetonini. Il y occupe une place assez a part, surtout par la fusion accentuee et la sculpture des segments thoraciques. Aucun type de l'Ancien Monde ne parait voisin de Nimbamyrma, mais le genre Erebomyrma (WHEELER, 1903) d'Amerique chaude, s'en rapproche davantage. Ses ouvrieres sont monomorphes, microphthalmes, a clypeus et antennes comme ci-dessus. Mais Erebomyrma garde un sillon net entre pro- et mesothorax, il a une tete plus allongee (facies de Solenopsis), deux dents epinotales seulement; des petioles beaucoup moins greles. Il s'agit en somme d'un type synthetique faisant passage aux Myrmecinini. Comme les Erebomyrma d'Amerique sont rares et mal connus, il est tres possible que ces minuscules Fourmis se retrouvent sur d'autres continents. (1)
