For the</p> <p>purpose of taxonomic convenience, we present the following characteristics for Asian fauna:</p> <p>1. Mandibles with four teeth on the masticatory margin; the teeth located at equal distance each other in most species, but basal tooth located apart from other teeth in subterranean species (Hosoishi et al., 2010).</p> <p>2. Palp formula 5, 3 (Bolton, 2003).</p> <p>3. Anterolateral margins of clypeus not protruded anteriorly (Hosoishi &amp; Ogata, 2012).</p> <p>4. Clypeus usually striated with longitudinal rugulae; the length of rugulae variable in different species.</p> <p>5. Antenna 11-segmented.</p> <p>6. Antennal club 2-segmented. Apical two flagellar segments clearly distinguished in coloration from other flagellar segments especially in the C. baduvi group.</p> <p>7. Sensilla basiconica and sensilla trichodea curvata distributed in the apical two flagellar segments (Hosoishi &amp; Ogata, 2009c).</p> <p>8. Compound eye generally distinct and large, but strongly reduced in subterranean species (Hosoishi et al., 2010).</p> <p>9. Ocelli rarely present in intermediate workers.</p> <p>10. Occipital carina distinct.</p> <p>11. Mesonotal ridges developed dorsolaterally, but weakly developed in C. masukoi and C. moatensis.</p> <p>12. Ventrolateral katepisternal ridge distinct (Hosoishi, 2015).</p> <p>13. Propodeal spines usually developed, but undeveloped or small tubercles in C. binghamii.</p> <p>14. Petiole usually with subparallel sides.</p> <p>15. Petiole usually with short process posteriorly.</p> <p>16. Postpetiole not bilobed. If weakly bilobed, usually without distinct longitudinal median sulcus.</p> <p>17. Fourth abdominal tergite with erect to suberect setae.</p> <p>18. Body principally yellow, but sometimes partly brown to black in C. binghami group, C. biroi group, C. moatensis group and C. quadriruga group, but brown in C. baduvi group.</p> <p>19. Monomorphic in size; intermediate workers occasionally present.</p> <p>20. Nesting in soil; some species nesting in dead twigs on lower vegetation.</p> <p>SYNONYMIC LIST OF ASIAN Orthocrema SPECIES</p> <p>In this study, five species groups are established within the Asian Orthocrema. The species groups were defined based on putative apomorphies and discrete morphological boundaries. The species groups recognized here will provide a possible basis for new monophyletic taxa. The C. baduvi, C. binghamii and C. biroi groups are relatively easily defined, but the C. quadriruga group is probably not monophyletic as currently defined. The C. moatensis group was represented by a single species since the position of C. moatensis in cladograms was always consistent. The taxa should ideally be monophyletic, but also considered as useful units for taxonomic purposes in the case of hyperdiverse genera.</p> <p>Crematogaster baduvi group</p> <p>C. baduvi Forel, 1912b.</p> <p>C. brunensis sp. nov.</p> <p>C. macracantha Creighton, 1945.</p> <p>C. storki sp. nov.</p> <p>Crematogaster binghamii group</p> <p>C. binghamii Forel, 1904.</p> <p>C. brevispina sp. nov.</p> <p>C. longipilosa Forel, 1907.</p> <p>Crematogaster biroi group</p> <p>C. biroi Mayr, 1897.</p> <p>= C. aitkenii Forel, 1902a. syn. nov.</p> <p>= C. biroi smythiesii Forel, 1902a. syn. nov.</p> <p>= C. urvijae Bharti, 2003. syn. nov.</p> <p>C. fritzi Emery, 1901.</p> <p>C. luzonensis sp. nov.</p> <p>C. masukoi Hosoishi, Yamane &amp; Ogata, 2010.

Mandibles with four teeth arranged at an equal distance, apical and subapical teeth large, basal two teeth smaller. Anterior clypeal margin convex in medial portion. Compound eyes slightly projecting beyond lateral margins of head in full-face view. Scapes reaching posterolateral corners of head.</p> <p>Pronotal collar with weakly concave anterior margin in dorsal view, distinctly lower than pronotum in lateral view. Pronotal dorsum without distinct ridges laterally. Mesonotal dorsum with lateral ridges that irregularly extend posteriad to tips of propodeal spines. Pronotum and mesonotum in lateral view not clearly forming continuous dorsal outline; mesonotal dorsum flat.

Although we do not have any sequence data for the species, several morphological features: clearly differentiated two-segmented antennal club; laterally directed propodeal spines; petiole with subparallel sides; node-like process on posterior portion of petiole; highly convex postpetiolar dorsum; subpostpetiolar venter convex, suggest that C. macracantha belongs to the subgenus Orthocrema. Thus we treat C. macracantha as a member of the subgenus Orthocrema.</p> <p>Distribution: This species is known from Malaysia (Borneo) (Fig. 49).</p> <p>Material examined: MALAYSIA: one worker, Bt.

However, the original description and character states mentioned by him match well with C. suehiro. Additionally longer scape (SI 96) in holotype of C. miroku also suggests the affinity with C. suehiro (SI 94–100) rather than C. osakensis (SI 77–84). In a key to Japanese Crematogaster species (Terayama, Kubota &amp; Eguchi, 2014), C. miroku was separated from C. suehiro by the petiole with convex sides and slightly broader posteriorly, but he mentioned ‘ Petiole.., widest at posterior end ’ in the original description (Terayama, 2013). Those slight differences are treated as variation within one species, C. suehiro until additional characters including molecular data are available.</p> <p>Distribution and biology: This species is known from Southern parts of Japan (Ishigaki Island, Okinawa Island) (Fig. 52). This species inhabits developed forests, and nests in dead twigs on trees.</p> <p>Material examined: JAPAN: six workers, Mt. Omoto, Ishigaki Island, 10.x.2008 (M. Maruyama &amp; T.

(Orthocrema)].</p> <p>Comments: Examination of syntype workers in MCSN and MHNG reveals that C. crassicornis does not belong to the subgenus Orthocrema. Although this species has two-segmented antennal club, characteristic features include: anterolateral margins of clypeus protruded anteriorly; petiole without node-like process posteriorly in lateral view; postpetiole bilobed with longitudinal median sulcus. These features are characteristic of the subgenus Crematogaster and we consider C. crassicornis to be referred to that subgenus.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/1E64E12B3E48FF877C6ABE76DC80F970	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
