Myrmicaria can be discerned from related ant genera by a postpetiole with a complete tergosternal fusion, a postpetiole-gaster articulation shifted ventrally on the gaster, and an antenna with seven segments.[2]
Biochemistryedit
Myrmicarin 430A, a heptacyclic alkaloid, was isolated from the poison glands of African Myrmicaria. The structure of its carbon skeleton was previously unknown.[3]
