Afrotropical Crematogaster kneri group (former subgenus Sphaerocrema)

This list follows Blaimer 2012.

Characterization
Blaimer suggests that mostly all of the species in the former Sphaerocrema subgenus should belong in this group. The species marked with an asterisk are listed in Blaimer's article, the rest belongs to the former subgenus and need confirmation in this group.

1. Petiole moderately to sharply flared, or suboval

2. Postpetiole globular, with at most weak posterior impression

3. Pronotum often with angular or tuberculate lateral margins

4. Mesonotum often postero-laterally angulate or denticulate
