Abstract
The genus Diacamma includes thirteen or more species of Ponerine ants which are geographically confined to India, Ceylon, southern China, the Malay Archipelago, New Guinea and the northern portion of Australia. Most of the species have large black or bronzy workers and pale yellow or reddish yellow males. The workers have a pair of spines on the pedicel directed backward and an oval cavity in the pleural region hetween the first and second thoracic spiracles. Emery monographed this genus in 1897 and it was an examination of his paper which prompted further investigation by the writer.
