Afrotropical Aenictus

Gómez (2022) - There are 23 species known from the worker caste and some of these have known queens. The rest of the 55 species are only known from males.

All the Afrotropical species are endemic to the Afrotropical region and seem to have low affinities with the rest of the World fauna. Only two Afrotropical Aenictus species groups (Aenictus eugenii species group and Aenictus rotundatus species group) could have some related species in the Asian and Palaearctic faunas.
