Genus Pyramica Roger View in CoL HNS
Three species of Pyramica HNS have been recorded from California, of which two are endemic and one is introduced from the Old World. These are rare, cryptobiotic ants, thought to be specialist predators on springtails and other small arthropods.
Species identification: keys in Ward (1988) and Bolton (2000). Additional references: Bolton (1999), Brown (1953g), Brown and Wilson (1959b), Dejean (1985b), Wilson (1954a).
