Identifying Paratrechina sp. nr. pubens - the “crazy rasberry ant”, aka Caribbean crazy ant, brown crazy ant, hairy crazy ant

Texas Color is reddish to brown

Texas One node

Texas Acidopore Acidopore – circle of hairs at tip of abdomen

AntWeb Coral Gables, FL Standing macrochetae

Paraguay AntWeb Relatively long femur and scape – but not nearly as long as P. longicornis

Galapagos AntWeb

P. Longicornis – black crazy ant Very long thorax, femurs, and scapes AntWeb Typically very black – although I have seen samples from China that are quite reddish

P. bourbonica AntWeb Very similar to P. pubens, but consistently darker – found along the gulf coast

Odorous house ant, Tapinoma sessile AntWeb Bad character – often referred to as “node hidden by abdomen” – mostly untrue Standing macrochetae rare

Abdomen dissimilar to CRA Thorax not as uneven as CRA AntWeb

Argentine ant – Linepithema humile Thorax a bit distended to that of P. pubens Abdomen almost arrow shaped in sinistral view Color varies from light brown (above) to dark brown (next slide) AntWeb

Much thinner than P. pubens AntWeb

Head narrows drasticallyHead does not narrow drastically P. fulva Argentine AntWeb AntWeb
