Based on recently collected material, the Camponotus
kiesenwetteri group is redefined, and its members known from the Aegean region are diagnosed. Camponotus
schulzisp. nov. is described from İzmir Province, Turkey. Camponotus
nadimi Tohmé, 1969 syn. nov. is proposed as a junior synonym of Camponotus
libanicus André, 1881 and Camponotus
kiesenwetteri
cyprius Emery, 1920 syn. nov. as a junior synonym of Camponotus
kiesenwetteri (Roger, 1859). A key to workers of species of the C.
kiesenwetteri group is provided. Niche modeling analyses are used to account for species habitat suitability across the Aegean region.
