摘要
The members of Dorylinae are dominant predators in tropical and subtropical terrestrial ecosystems. The most cryptic army ant genus of the New World is Cheliomyrmex. The only species recognized until now for the Amazon Brazilian Basin is C. andicola, recorded in the state of Acre. We provided the first records of Cheliomyrmex megalonyx to Brazil in the Amazon Basin. The major worker of Cheliomyrmex megalonyx was collected in the state of Rondonia while the minor was found in the state of Amazonas. These records suggest that more efforts are needed to reveal the diversity, distribution and biology of these cryptic ants.
