 *  americana. Formica americana Buckley, 1866: 154 (w.q.) U.S.A. Combination in Camponotus: Emery, 1895c: 337. [Unresolved junior secondary homonym of Camponotus americanus Mayr, above (Bolton, 1995b: 85).] Unidentifiable taxon; incertae sedis in Camponotus: Bolton, 1995b: 85. [Note: Emery, 1895c: 337 and Wheeler, W.M. 1902f: 19, suspected this name was cognate with marginatus. Emery, 1925b: 117 provisionally synonymised it with minutus. Smith, M.R. 1951a: 845 and Smith, D.R. 1979: 1432, dubiously place it near nearcticus.]
