Abstract
"The oriental plant-ant genus Cladomyrma Wheeler is revised, including now 11 species. Six species are described as new (aurochaetae, crypteroniae, dianeae, maryatiae, yongi, nudidorsalis), mossyna is synonymized with petalae, and cryptata with andrei; hobbyi and hewitti are revived from synonymy and resurrected as species. A key to queen caste is provided. The biology of the species is briefly discussed and the occurrence of Cladomyrma in Sumatra is noted for the first time"--P. [1].
