PARANOMOPONE, A NEW GENUS OF PONERINE ANTS 

 FROM QUEENSLAND.! 



By William Morton Wheeler. 



Paranomopone gen. nov. 



Worker. Rather small, monomorphic. Mandibles triangular, with toothed 

 apical borders. Clypeus short, not produced in the middle, indistinctly marked 

 off from the remainder of the head. This is also true of the triangular frontal area. 

 Frontal carina; distinctly dilated, further apart than the distance of each to the 

 lateral border of the head, concealing the insertions of the antennfe, continued back 

 about three-fourths the length of the head as the medial border of a deep scrobe 

 which lies entirely dorsal to the eye. The ventral border of this scrobe, which is 

 somewhat more than three times as long as broad, is also very sharp. Its depres- 

 sion is divided by a median longitudinal ridge which does not extend to the 

 posterior end of the scrobe, so that the latter is incompletely separated into two com- 

 partments, one for the accommodation of the scape and one for the funiculus, when
