Description

Cataglyphis argentatus Radoszovski

Cataglyphis argentata Radoszkovski, 1876: 140. Syntypes workers, Egypt or Ethiopia.

The placement of this species is tentative, as the type material is lacking and the description is ambiguous; all the morphological characters point to a relationship with C.lividus but the silvery hairs indicate a relationship with bombycinus or laevior.
