#268003 Status as species: Smith, 1858a: 99; Roger, 1860: 291; Mayr, 1863a: 450; Dalla Torre, 1893: 42.
#268002 [Note: Emery, 1893j: 2, comments that the specimen consists of the head and prothorax of Dolichoderus sp., the rest of the body is Platythyrea sp. Emery, 1911e: 30 (footnote) repeats this information. Brown, 1975: 9, refers Ponera ruficornis to Platythyrea as “nomen dubum et oblitum Emery, 1911e: 28.” This compound specimen is probably best regarded as an unidentifiable taxon, incertae sedis in Ponera.]
