Abstract

Five species of Cataglyphis belonging to the bicolor species-group are recorded from Israel, including a new species, C. israelensis n. sp. The relationships of the new species with other bicolor group species in the region, and relationships among species in the niger species-complex are discussed. The identification of isolated specimens belonging to the five Israeli species by morphological characters is investigated.
