Tetramorium scabrosum species group

Roncin (2002) - We propose to abandon the mixtum-group (this group has been revived by Agavekar et al. 2017) and to transfer its species into the scabrosum and the tonganum groups, both groups being defined according to Bolton (1977), except for the gaster morphology. The tonganum and scabrosum groups remain weakly defined and are more taxonomically practical groups than monophyletic units.

• Tetramorium aptum
• Tetramorium crepum
