Ant
Ants are eusocial insects of the family Formicidae and, along with the related wasps and bees, belong to the order Hymenoptera.
Army ant
The name army ant (or legionary ant or marabunta) is applied to over 200 ant species in different lineages.
California Academy of Sciences
The California Academy of Sciences is a research institute and natural history museum in San Francisco, California, that is among the largest museums of natural history in the world, housing over 46 million specimens.

Convergent evolution
Convergent evolution is the independent evolution of similar features in species of different periods or epochs in time.
See Simopelta and Convergent evolution
Gaster (insect anatomy)
The gaster is the bulbous posterior portion of the metasoma found in hymenopterans of the suborder Apocrita (bees, wasps and ants).
See Simopelta and Gaster (insect anatomy)
Genus
Genus (genera) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family as used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses.
Morphology (biology)
Morphology in biology is the study of the form and structure of organisms and their specific structural features.
See Simopelta and Morphology (biology)
Neotropical realm
The Neotropical realm is one of the eight biogeographic realms constituting Earth's land surface.
See Simopelta and Neotropical realm
Ponerinae
Ponerinae, the ponerine ants, is a subfamily of ants in the Poneromorph subfamilies group, with about 1,600 species in 47 extant genera, including Dinoponera gigantea - one of the world's largest species of ant. Simopelta and Ponerinae are Ponerinae stubs.
Ponerini
Ponerini is a tribe of Ponerinae ants with 46 genera and 6 extinct genera. Simopelta and Ponerini are Ponerinae and Ponerinae stubs.
Subfamily
In biological classification, a subfamily (Latin: subfamilia, plural subfamiliae) is an auxiliary (intermediate) taxonomic rank, next below family but more inclusive than genus.
Tribe (biology)
In biology, a tribe is a taxonomic rank above genus, but below family and subfamily.
See Simopelta and Tribe (biology)
Zootaxa
Zootaxa is a peer-reviewed scientific mega journal for animal taxonomists.
