Formica nigerrima Christ 1791

The description reports nothing but body length, color and occurrence in gardens and could refer to either a Lasius s.str. or a Tapinoma species. Chist‘s paper considers ants on a worldwide scale but he gave no collecting locality for Formica nigerrima . Supposing that he meant a German garden, there is some likelihood for a synonymy with Lasius niger .
