Trachymyrmex Saussurei
''Trachymyrmex '' is a genus of fungus-growing ants in the subfamily Myrmicinae. The genus is mainly tropical in distribution, with most species being found in Central and South America. The queens of the species appear to mate with only one male on their nuptial flight Nuptial flight is an important phase in the reproduction of most ant, termite, and some bee species. It is also observed in some fly species, such as ''Rhamphomyia longicauda''. During the flight, virgin queens mate with males and then land to .... Species A number of species were moved from ''Trachymyrmex'' based on molecular phylogeny by Solomon ''et al.'' 2019. Of the species formerly included, nine were retained in ''Trachymyrmex'', while 31 of the species were moved to the new genus '' Mycetomoellerius'', and an additional nine moved to '' Paratrachymyrmex''.

Ants evolved from vespoid wasp ancestors in the Cretaceous period. More than 13,800 of an estimated total of ... in the subfamily Myrmicinae. It is the northernmost species in the tribe Attini. Distribution The species is common in eastern United States, where it inhabits sandy soils. It is the most widely distributed fungus-growing ant in the United States, known from Texas to Florida, north to Illinois, Ohio and New York (state), New York. The species has been identified in Durango, Mexico, but these records are likely that of the very similar ''Trachymyrmex carinatus''.
