Abstract
A new genus of ants from the Late Eocene ambers of Europe is described. Yantaromyrmex gen. n. includes five species, three of them have been previously described in the genera Hypoclinea Mayr, 1855 (Y. constrictus (Mayr, 1868), comb. n., and Y. geinitzi (Mayr, 1868), comb. n.) and Iridomyrmex Mayr, 1862 (Y. samlandicus (Wheeler, 1915), comb. n.), and were transferred to the genus Anonychomyrma Donisthorpe, 1947 in the recent revision of the genus Iridomyrmex [Heterick, Shattuck, 2011]. Two new species, Y. intermedius sp. n. and Y. mayrianum sp. n., are described. Species of the new genus combine plesiomorphic characters of both Iridomyrmex and Anonychomyrma, but cannot be included to any of these genera. Probably the genus Yantaromyrmex gen. n. is ancestral to both of these genera and for the tribe Iridomyrmecini sensu Dubovikoff [2005], as a whole. A key to species of the genus Yantaromyrmex gen. n. based on workers is given.
