Nomenclature
The following information is derived from Barry Bolton's Online Catalogue of the Ants of the World.
- fumatus. Lasius fumatus Emery, 1869b: 26, fig. 3 (w.q.) ITALY. Junior synonym of lasioides: Emery, 1870: 194. [The species referred to as Prenolepis lasioides in the text of Emery, 1869b: 6, is referred to in the list of figures for that paper (p. 26) as Lasius fumatus. Both names refer to the same specimens and hence are automatically synonymous.]
