Abstract

Meranoplus Smith, 1853 is distributed in the Old World tropics, from Africa, Asia, New Guinea to Australia. There are four species Meranoplusbicolor (Guérin-Méneville, 1844), M.castaneus Smith, 1857, M.laeviventris Emery, 1889, and M.mucronatus Smith, 1857 previously recorded from Thailand. In the present paper, two new species of the genus, M.siamensis Yodprasit & Jaitrong, sp. nov. and M.tanomtongi Yodprasit & Jaitrong, sp. nov., are described based on the worker caste. Additionally, M.malaysianus Schödl, 1998 is recorded for the first time for Thailand. A key to the Oriental and Indo-Australian species, based on the worker caste, is provided. The new species and the new record were found to nest in soil.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
