Eusphinctus (Zasphinctus) Wheeler, 1918

Zasphinctus is a genus of ants in the subfamily Dorylinae. The genus is a pantropical and distinctive group, originally described by Wheeler (1918) based on " Sphinctomyrmex" turneri collected in Queensland, Australia. [1] Zasphinctus was first described as a subgenus of "Eusphinctus", and then synonymized into Sphinctomyrmex, to later be raised to full genus status by Borowiec (2016), [1] [2] who included approximately 20 species in the new genus circumscription. [3]
