Gnamptogenys
Gnamptogenys is a genus of ants in the subfamily Ectatomminae. The genus has a wide distribution. It is known to occur in the Nearctic, Neotropic, Indomalayan, and Australasian realms. Camacho et al, 2022 revised this genus, significantly reducing its size to only 32 valid extant species and 5 valid fossil species by splitting off most species into four formerly synonymized genera Alfaria, Holcoponera, Poneracantha, and Stictoponera.
