	abstract = {Odontoponera was first recognized as a distinct genus in 1862 when Mayr raised to generic rank an ant described a year earlier by Frederick Smith as Ponera denticulata. This insect was later found to be identical with Smith{\textquoteright}s Ponera transversa described in 1857. The name denticulata was, therefore, replaced by transversa. Although the single species by which this genus is represented is fairly abun- dant and distributed throughout many of the islands of the East Indies and the adjacent portions of the continent, little attention has been paid to its variations. Wheeler and Chap- man in 1925 described biconcentrica, a variety from the Philippines but except for this no other form has been noted. Dr. W. M. Wheeler has kindly permitted me to ex- amine the Odontoponera material in his collection and I find that it is possible to recognize two additional variants. One of these is plainly of subspecific rank while the other appears to be a color variety of the typical transversa. Biconcentrica must, I believe, be raised from varietal to subspecific status. <p>The shape and the sculpture of the node of the petiole which appear at first sight to offer striking characters for separation are quite valueless in this regard. In a series of workers from a single nest the petiole may be narrow with a deeply notched summit and heavy rug= on the basal half or relatively broad with the notch and rug= reduced or absent. The same is true to a lesser degree of the sculpture of the pronotum. This usually consists of more or less pa- rallel, heavy, transverse rugae. Occasionally, however, one or two workers in a series have the posterior pronotal rug= twisted into two whorl-like configurations. As may be recal- led this characteristic formed the basis for the recognition Contributions from the Entomological Laboratory of the Bussey Institution, Harvard University, No. 315.},
