title: Revision of the ant genus Myrmoteras of the Indo-Chiese Peninsula (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Formicinae).
abstract: The Indo-Chinese species of the genus Myrmoteras are revised. We recognise one species in the subgenus Myagroteras and six species in the subgenus Mynnoteras from Vietnam, Myanmar and Thailand. Five new species are described based on the worker caste: M. concolor, M. jaitrongi, M. namphuong, M. opalinumn, and M. tonimasai, all belonging to the subgenus Myrmnoteras.
