		On the basis of Bayesian dating analysis, the estimated age of the most recent common ancestor of Myrmecia and Nothomyrmecia is 74 million years (95% confidence limits, 53–101 million years), a result consistent with the origin of the myrmeciine stem lineage in the Cretaceous.
		The ant subfamily Myrmeciinae is redefined to contain two tribes, Myrmeciini (genus Myrmecia) and Prionomyrmecini (Nothomyrmecia and Prionomyrmex).
		The Myrmeciinae is a subfamily of the Formicidae that was once found worldwide but is now restricted to Australia and New Caledonia.

		The ants in subfamily Myrmeciinae are among the largest ants, often reach 20 mm, up to 45mm, in body length.
		The Myrmeciinae are found almost exclusively in Australia.
		For the Myrmeciinae ants the mesosoma is attached to the gaster by two distinct segments, the petiole and postpetiole.

		Their estimate of 74 million years divergence between the subfamilies Myrmeciinae and Prionomyrmeciinae and 99 million years between the latter and the Dolichoderinae is perfectly consistent with their understood morphological divergence and classification in three separate subfamilies as it is established in the literature.

	Ant Species
		The Myrmeciinae is a subfamily of the Formicidae that was once found worldwide but is now restricted to Australia and New Caledonia.
		The Myrmeciinae comprise two extant genera, Myrmecia and Nothomyrmecia, as well as the fossil genus Prionomyrmex.
		These large, alert ants have characteristic large eyes and long, slender mandibles and they have superior vision, able to track and even follow intruders from a distance of 1 meter

		The Myrmeciinae types of ants are today only found in Australia and New Caledonia, but they were once found all over the world.
		The subfamily Myrmeciinae contains one extinct genera, Prionomyrmex, but that type of ants is only known from fossil records.
		The Myrmecia type of ants is commonly referred to as jack-jumper ants or bull ants.

		The remaining subfamilies vary from fairly common in areas were they occur to very rare and seldom seen.

		Im letzten Jahr haben V. Dietemann, C. Peeters und B. Hölldobler einen Bericht über eine königinlose Myrmeciinae verfasst, die in Australien gefunden wurde.
		Somit wurde bewiesen, dass auch in der Familie der Myrmeciinae die sexuelle Reproduktion durch Arbeiterinnen in zumindest einer Art vorkommt, und die Königinkaste völlig fehlt.
		Ich bin im Moment mit Herrn Dietemann in Kontakt - er war so freundlich mir den Forschungsbericht zukommen zu lassen und mir einige Fragen zum Thema zu beantworten.

		Mature Nothomyrmecia colonies are generally small at 50 - 120 adults (2).

		The ant genus Pheidole (Myrmicinae) is proposed as the ancestral host for species of Orasema and possibly Oraseminae (Table 1; Heraty 1994a,b).
		Eucharitinae are indicated as parasites largely of Ponerinae and Formicinae, with one Australian genus parasitic on the bull-dog ant (Myrmeciinae) (Heraty 1994a).
		Eucharitids parasitic on Formicinae are currently hypothesized as belonging to one or more derived lineages of Eucharitinae.

		However, among the more primitive ant subfamilies, such intruders are poorly known, and most reports deal essentially with the dipteran or hymenopteran parasites affecting the host brood.
		Among these, various genera of Eucharitidae (Austeucharis, Chalcura, Neolosbanus, Propsilogaster, Schizaspidia and Tricoryna) from the subfamily Eucharitinae (sensu Heraty 1994), are known to parasitize species of Myrmecia (Myrmeciinae), Odontomachus, Rhytidoponera, Gnamptogenys, and Hypoponera (Ponerinae) (Wheeler and Wheeler 1937, Boucek 1988, Heraty 1994).
		In the New World, only two genera of Eucharitinae have been reared from the cocoons of ponerine ants: four species of Kapala from Odontomachus and Pachycondyla (Wheeler 1907, Myers 1931, Wheeler and Wheeler 1937, Clausen 1941, Heraty 1994) and Isomerala coronata (Westwood) from Ectatomma tuberculatum (Cook 1905, Wheeler 1907, Wheeler and Wheeler 1937).
