【摘要】 刺结蚁属建立于1861年，其全球已知147种(含亚种),主要分布于非洲界(62.5%)、古北界(33.4%)及东洋界(16.3%),非洲和亚洲热带地区是近年新种发现的核心区域。中国刺结蚁属研究起步较晚，目前已确认有效种9种，2个亚种，集中分布于西南和华南地区，高海拔高纬度地区仅有零星分布，这可能与国内古北界相关调查研究较少相关。本文主要对刺结蚁属研究历史、分类情况及物种地理分布等研究内容进行系统概述，这将为深入研究其分布概况提供参考。更多还原

【Abstract】 The ant genus Lepisiota Mayr was established in 1861 and is widely distributed, with 147 globally recognized species(including subspecies). These species are primarily found in the Paleotropical realm(62.5%), Palearctic realm(33.4%), and Oriental realm(16.3%).Research on the genus Lepisiota of China started relatively late.Recent discoveries of new species have concentrated in tropical regions of Africa and Asia. Research on Lepisiota in China began relatively late, and currently, 9 valid species and 2 subspecies have been confirmed, mainly distributed in the southwestern and southern regions of China. Only sporadic occurrences are recorded in high-altitude and high-latitude areas, which may be related to insufficient surveys in the Palearctic regions of the country. This article mainly provides a systematic overview of its research history, classification and species geographical distribution of the genus Lepisiota,which will provide a reference for further research on its distributionoverview.更多还原
