Afrotropical Camponotus by subgenus

AntWiki: The Ants --- Online

The present classification reflects Bolton (1995)[1]

The current situation of this genus is really chaotic and needs a profound revision, even to the subgeneric level. The subgenera are poorly defined, and some species should be transferred to other subgenera or even some subgenera should be redefined. An example can be Camponotus bifossus, which was described under Colobopsis but almost surely belonging to Paramyrmamblys.
