feminine
Crematogaster
Lund, 1831a:
132
Type-species:
Formica scutellaris (obsolete combination of Crematogaster scutellaris), by subsequent designation of Bingham, 1903: 124.
- [Notes. (i) The original spelling Crematogaster is used throughout, the incorrect subsequent spelling Cremastogaster is ignored; see catalogue of genus-group names. (ii) The spurious paper by Soulié & Dicko, 1965: 85, is ignored. This publication merely repeats, inaccurately, the Wheeler, 1922: 828 catalogue of Afrotopical Crematogaster, but treats the subgenera as genera; see catalogue of genus-group names.]
- [Type-species not Formica acuta, unjustified subsequent designation by Emery, 1912d: 272; this error repeated in, for example: Emery, 1914b: 39; Arnold, 1920a: 482; Emery, 1922c: 128; Gallardo, 1934b: 4; Soulié, 1965: 78.]
- [Cremastogaster Mayr, 1861: 74 (and many later authors), incorrect subsequent spelling. Discussions of spelling: Emery, 1912d: 272 (footnote); Wheeler, 1913a: 78; Donisthorpe, 1941f: 36; Buren, 1959: 125.]
