Description
Classification of Ponerinae Proposed Here
Ponerinae contains two tribes, Platythyreini, with the single genus Platythyrea, and Ponerini with the remaining genera. Ponerini is here divided into six informal genus groups based on molecular phylogenetic results (Schmidt, 2013). Firm morphological synapomorphies have not been found for all of these groups, and their relationships are still unresolved, but the monophyly of each is generally well supported by the available evidence.
Platythyreini
Platythyrea Roger
= Eubothroponera Clark
