List of ant genera (alphabetical)

List of ant genera (alphabetical)

The following is a thusfar incomplete list of worldwide ant genera. Those which are no longer considered current nomenclature are marked with an asterisk (*).

Genera are often named after famous myrmecologists - e.g. "Donisthorpea" was named to honour Horace Donisthorpe, "Forelius" for Auguste Forel, "Janetia" for Charles Janet, "Wheeleriella" for William M. Wheeler. See the list of notable myrmecologists for a compilation of these people.
