This history item belongs to Formica sericeiventris Guérin-Méneville, 1838

Its current taxon owner(s) is Camponotus sericeiventris

[Note: all the synonymising authors above give Camponotus sericeiventris as the senior synonym, but Camponotus cuneata properly had priority. Authors before Dalla Torre, 1893, gave no publication date for Camponotus sericeiventris, but Dalla Torre incorrectly dated it as 1830, and this incorrect date was copied by all the later synonymising authors listed. Kempf, 1972b: 48, was the first to provide the correct publication date for Camponotus sericeiventris (1838), by which time Camponotus cuneata had become a nomen oblitum.]
