Pseudoneoponera insularis

Distribution based on Regional Taxon Lists
Indo-Australian Region: Borneo, Indonesia, Malaysia. Oriental Region: Vietnam.

Biology
Colonies are extremely small (10 workers/colony). Most colonies have one gamergate (Ito 1993). However winged queens also exist in this species, and 1 colony in Bogor was found with a dealated queen (F. Ito pers. comm.). This suggests that gamergates can function as secondary reproductives, although most colonies are likely to multiply by fission.
