Species of Odontoponera

Odontoponera currently contains two species, one of which has three subspecies (Yamane, 2009). However, the status of the species has been questioned and Yamane (2009) suggests that at least one of them should be treated as a junior synonym. A full revision of the group will be required to determine the true taxonomic status of these taxa.
