Description

* Monomorium pharaonis (Linnaeus)

Monomorium pharaonis, M. salomonis and M. subopacum are the only species in the Neotropics with head and mesosoma with fine reticulate-punctate sculpturation and mandibular dorsum with coarse longitudinal rugulae. M. pharaonis has two rows of hairs on the head between the vertex and carinae, which distinguishes this species from the other two. M. pharaonis is one of the best-known Old World tramp species.
