Taxonomic Notes
Taylor et al. (2018): Camponotus lohieri Santschi, 1913, new status (here, originally described as Camponotus (Myrmoturba) maculatus Fab. stirps melanocnemis Sants. v. lohieri n. var. Santschi, 1913; raised status to Camponotus maculatus F., var. lohieri Sant., Emery, 1915g: 22), CASENT0905268), Haut-Dahomey, DESANTI.

This treatment of C. lohieri as a valid species by Taylor et al. (2018) was proposed without comment or justification, has has not been accepted by subsequent authors.

Taylor et al. (2018) treat Camponotus proletaria as a full, distinct species but provide no justification for the change. Subsequent authors have not followed this treatment.
