Expansion of the geographic range of _Cyatta abscondita_ Sosa‑Calvo et al., 2013 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

Resumen

The presence of the recently described fungus-farming ant genus and species Cyatta abscondita is reported in the northwestern region of Misiones Province in Argentina. A single worker of C. abscondita was collected in a pitfall trap in a mature plantation of Pinus taeda in the Atlantic Forest biome. This finding expands the distribution of the genus and species, extending it farther south in the Neotropics.
