Cataglyphis minima Collingwood, 1985: 289 .

Currently, C. minima appears to have a more restricted distribution in the Arabian Peninsula than other species of the genus. It was originally described from Saudi Arabia and recorded from UAE (Tigar and Collingwood, 1993). At Rawdhat Khorim, C. minima has an abundance and foraging behavior similar to C. niger .
