Tetramorium Breviscapus
''Tetramorium'' is a genus of ants in the subfamily Myrmicinae that includes more than 520 species. These ants are also known as pavement ants. Taxonomy and phylogeny ''Tetramorium'' was first described by Gustav Mayr in 1855 in the same publication as ''Monomorium''. Revision within the genus by Wagner et al. in 2017 recognized a complex of 10 cryptic species, 3 of which were raised from subspecies classifications and 2 of which were newly described. This revision also elevated the pavement ant introduced to North America as the species ''T. immigrans'' rather than the previous designation as a subspecies of ''T. caespitum''. These 10 species in the ''T. caespitum'' complex are as follows: * ''Tetramorium alpestre'' Steiner, Schlick-Steiner & Seifert, 2010 * ''Tetramorium breviscapus'' Wagner et al., 2017 * ''Tetramorium caespitum'' (Linnaeus, 1758) * ''Tetramorium caucasicum'' Wagner et al., 2017 * ''Tetramorium fusciclava'' Consani & Zangheri, 1952 * ''Tetramorium hungaricu ...

Etymology The species is commonly known as the "pavement ant because workers are commonly found in pavements or roads, usually searching for food. There are also some ''Tetramorium'' species found in North America, although scientists are unsure whether or not ''T. caespitum'' is the species found, so they are often called ''Tetramorium sp. e''.

Europe is a continent located entirely in the Northern Hemisphere and mostly in the Eastern Hemisphere. It is bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Mediterranean Sea to the south, and Asia to the east.
