nov. and Forelophilus philippinensis sp. nov., are described, illustrated and compared

with the type species, Forelophilus overbecki Kutter, 1931 from Java, Indonesia,

hitherto the only species described in the genus. Forelophilus stefanschoedli sp.

nov. is known from minor and major workers. The latter morph was previously unknown

in Forelophilus Kutter, 1931 and allows a better comparison of Forelophilus,

Camponotus Mayr, 1861, and Overbeckia Viehmeyer, 1916. A minor worker of F.

overbecki is designated as lectotype. Records of F. stefanschoedli sp. nov. are from

the islands of Luzon, Leyte, and Mindanao, those of F. philippinensis sp. nov. from

Luzon, Bayagnan, and Mindanao.}, keywords = {Forelophilus, Formicidae, Formicinae, Philippines}, author = {Zettel, H. and Zimmeman, D.} }
