Aulacopone relicta

This species is only known from the holotype dealate queen (now apparently lost) and a single dealate queen coated for SEM work. Found in the forested areas of Azerbijan under bark, this ant remains a phylogenetic and behavioral mystery.

Distribution
This taxon was described from Azerbaijan.

Biology
This ant has been collected in only two locations in eastern Azerbijan, in the south in 1930 and in the north in 1936. Bob Taylor has published an account of the only known specimen remaining in the ANIC in Australia.
