<paragraph id="F95E294D23C5760236B8D50779D646E0" pageNumber="52">Worker.-Small ants with peculiar, long, subcylindrical body; the head excavated behind, with prominent, depressed posterior corners and very short clypeus, with which the closely approximated frontal carinae are fused. The latter are erect, leaving the articulations of the antennae exposed. The antennal fovea is bounded externally by a distinct carina. Mandibles with distinct, obscurely denticulate apical border. Antennae stout, 9- to 12-jointed, the scape incrassated distally, the terminal funicular joint large, swollen, oval or glandiform, at least as long as the three preceding joints together, thus forming a one-jointed club. Eyes small, sometimes wanting. Thorax with the premesonotal and mesoepinotal sutures absent or indistinct. Petiole and postpetiole not marginate on the sides, the latter strongly constricted off from the gaster which is largely formed by its first segment.</paragraph>

, sensu stricto, are known to occur only in the Ethiopian, Malagasy, Indomalayan, and Papuan Regions; those of Parasyscia occur in Texas, Guatemala,Syria, Ceylon, India, and Burma; those of Syscia have been recorded from Ceylon, Singapore, New Guinea, Queensland, and Hawaii; while Ooceraea is known only from Ceylon. As these ants form small colonies and live a subterranean life, they are very rarely seen and this probably accounts for the peculiar discontinuous distribution in the accompanying map (Map 5). It seems hardly possible that species of
