AKHMEDOV ASKAR GILMANOVICH1 & YUSUPOV ZALIMKHAN MAGOMEDOVICH2
Abstract:
A list of ants from Uzbekistan, based on a comprehensive analysis of scientific literature, long-term collections, as well as analysis of online databases (AntWeb and GABI), is presented. The checklist includes 114 species and subspecies from 31 genera and six subfamilies. Three species are recorded here for the first time. These are Tetramorium concaviceps (Radchenko, 1992), previously known from Kazakhstan and Mongolia, Formica mesasiatica Dlussky, 1964, recorded in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, China, and Mongolia, and the exotic species Hypoponera punctatissima (Roger, 1859). This work is the result of literature review and collection of material throughout Uzbekistan since 2010.
