Tetramorium chefketi Forel HNS : Agosti & Collingwood 1987a, 1987b
According to Agosti and Collingwood (1987a), the species (misspelled “chefteki”), which was described from the European part of Turkey, occurs also in Greece and Anatolia. We compared specimens from these areas with the worker syntypes (MHNG) and support this view. Schulz (1996) presented characters differentiating T. chefketi HNS from the closely similar T. moravicum HNS and T. forte HNS , and Sanetra and Buschinger (2000) as well as Schlick-Steiner et al. (2005) studied its phylogenetic position in relation to T. forte HNS , T. moravicum HNS and T. semilaeve HNS . Csösz et al. (unpubl.) ascribe the paralectotypes of T. forte HNS from Alušta (Crimea, Ukraine) to T. caespitum sarkissiani Forel HNS , 1911 and regard that taxon as synonymous to T. chefketi HNS , which has equal priority.
