With receipt of fresh specimens of workers and males, I have separated a number of distinct species from the long-held profusion of so-called subspecies, varietites and stirps. These are, with the specimens and/or illustrations available to me. * type images available.
Dorylus (Typhlopone) annoyeri new species - male from the Central African Republic - my photos
Dorylus badius - male from South Africa; possible workers but not images of such - my photos.
Dorylus eurous - workers from Sudan - my photos.
Dorylus fulvus - workers * from West Africa, possible male from the Central African Republic - my photos; dentifrons appears to a straight junior synonym and stramineus is unresolved.
Dorylus glabratus - male from the Central African Republic - my photos.
Dorylus juvenculus - queen, male* and workers from Israel - probably punicus * ? - my photos.
Dorylus obscurior - male and worker * from the Central African Republic - my photos of the male.
Dorylus oraniensis - workers from Tunisia - junior synonyms crosi * and saharensis *, plus my photos
Dorylus rhodesiae - workers * from Kenya - plus my photos.

Separation of available workers - Separation of available males

Base form as given in Bolton (1995: 179), with synonymic origins mainly from Emery (1895j: 724)

Historical notes, plus my comments on the listing and revisionary notes on type locations, non-fulvus species, are given below the listing.

Note: Examination of Westwood's descriptions of the type, dahlbomii and shuckardi give no clue as to the type location. The specimens were found in sugar, the latter in "casks of sugar from the West Indies". Given that no Dorylus genus members have ever been found in the New World the latter has to be regarded as misleading. The Slave Trade routes between Britain and the West Indies, however, took the ships via West Africa ("The Slave Coast"), on the outward route. The return route appears to have been direct from the West Indies to Britain. Now (January 2013) the Antweb photographs of shuckardi have a label clearly marked "Mr Raddon's many speciemns in sugar from Bengal dead"

Note: Examination of Westwood's description and drawing, however, shows that shuckardi is very similar and possibly identical to Dorylus (Dorylus) spininodis and is not even a Typhlopone.

Note: Examination of Shuckard's description suggests kirbyi, with a bright chestnut head with a median longitudinal sulcus, was actually a small worker of an Anomma species. A candidate appears to be Dorylus (Anomma) molestus.

Emery (1888b: 350) had: Dorylus juvenculus Shuck.  hab. Africa bor. et trop Syria, India. He listed the type plus - Typhlopone oraniensis Luc. and Dorylus badius Gerst., plus ? D. labiatus Shuck and ? D, hindustanus

Emery (1895j: 794) under the heading Subgenus Typhlopone Westw. had worker fulvus Westw.;
males juvenculus Shuck., var. badius Gerst., var. labiatus Shuck., ? var. glabratus Shuck.

Emery (1915g) partitioned the then known forms, with synonymies, as
D. fulvus fulvus, from Africa "settentr." (w & m), Syria; synonyms D. juvenculus Shuck (m), Typhlopone oraniensis Luc (w.)
D. fulvus eurous n. (w & m) eastern Africa
D. fulvus badius Gerst. (m) eastern-southern Africa
D. fulvus dentifrons Wasm. (m) tropical western Africa ? D. glabratus Shuck. (m)
D. fulvus rhodesianus For. (w) Rhodesia (Bulawayo).
He noted the worker of "euroa" from Eritrea, as having a head less elongated than the type, as "D. fulvus oraniensis Luc.", from the Barbary Coast and Syria; but shorter and less wide than the western tropical form, described by Wasmann as dentifrons. The Emery (1915g) images show waht appear to be four distinct species.

Emery, C. 1919. Notes critiques de myrmécologie. Ann. Soc. Entomol. Belgique 59: 100-107 added to his previous synonymies with -
D. fulvus fulvus = the D. helvolus male of Latreille (1805: 261, Pl. 100, Fig 10).
D. fulvus dentifrons Wasm. junior synonym stramineus Stiz (1910: 128).
D. fulvus badius Gerst. = the st. badius of Santschi (1914: 63), of Arnold (1915: 125; Pl.4, Fig 31; var. euroa Emery (1915: 5); var. obscurior Santschi (1914: 333).
