Paratrechina flavipes (F Smith)

Iran list Type location Japan (Tapinoma flavipes, F Smith, 1874: 404, worker & queen; in Paratrechina (Nylanderia), Emery, 1925b: 220) Hiogo - see below

F Smith's (1874) description is at . Trager's (1984) redescription is at .

Note: placed in the genus "Nylanderia" by LaPolla, Brady & Shattuck, 2010a: 127 (name only) but see my notes on the genus.

The record of it being found in South-West Iran by Paknia et al. (2008) was an identification by Collingwood but seems likely to be a misidentification. The USA specimen shown at https://www.antweb.org/specimenImages.do?code=casent0104829, for instance, clearly differs, having a different head shape and thicker erect hairs than the type (below).
