Abstract
Ninety-nine valid species and forty-four valid subspecies of the ge¬nus Lepisiota Santschi, 1926 have been known from the Palaearctic, Afrotropical, southern Indo-Malayan, and Indo-Australian realms. Among them, two species are known from Thailand. In this paper, three additional new species are described from the country: Lepisiota bicolor Jarernkong et Jaitrong, sp. n. (based on the worker caste); Lepisiota siamensis Jarernkong et Jaitrong, sp. n. (based on the worker caste); and Lepisiota thepthepae Jarernkong et Jaitrong, sp. n. (based on the worker caste and dealate queen). A key to the Thai species of based on the worker caste is pro¬vided. All of the new species were collected from soil.
