Identification
Pierce et al. (2017) - At present, there are no known morphological differences between Hylomyrma versuta and Hylomyrma dentiloba. We differentiate the two species geographically, with H. versuta  occurring from the Atlantic slope of Costa Rica northward to Mexico, and H. dentiloba occurring from the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica eastward through Panama. See further discussion under H. dentiloba.
