REMARKS

In recent paper on Albanian ants Wagner et al. (2018b) suggested that southern populations from Balkan area and adjacent regions recorded as Tapinoma erraticum represent a cryptic undescribed species. Probably Turkish populations belong to the same taxon, but until a formal description we consider them as T. erraticum .
