4 We have not included here the Genus Leptanilloides Mann 
(Psyche 30:13-14, 1923), because the sexual forms are unknown. To 
quote Mann (p. 15) — 
“In general habitus this [ Leptanilloides ] is very similar 
to Leptanilla, but the structure of the head associates it more 
closely with Eciton, from which it is distinct in the form of 
the frontal lamellae, the form of the gaster and in not being 
polymorphic.” 
5 Leptanilla nordenskioldi Holmgren (Zool. Anzeiger 33:347) is 
an Eciton ( Acamatus ) according to Emery (Gen. Insect, p. 25, 1910). 
6 Santschi says in this paper, “Le $ du Lep. minuscula Sant, 
dont la tete est egalement tres allongee, provient des memes terrains 
et pourrait bien etre celui du L. nana.”
