[Note: Latreille, 1802a: 263, and also Kempf, 1972b: 260, give Formica pusilla as a senior synonym of Formica nana , but the latter is also unidentifiable. Similarly, Fabricius, 1782: 491, Retzius, 1783: 76, and Fabricius, 1804: 406, give Formica pusilla as a junior synonym of Formica omnivora , another unidentifiable name. It is apparent from De Geer, 1773’s pl. 31, fig. 24, that the species is a myrmicine ant.]
