Dorylinaeis anantsubfamily,with distributions in both theOld WorldandNew World.Bradyet al.(2014)synonymizedthe previous dorylomorph subfamilies (Aenictinae, Aenictogitoninae, Cerapachyinae, Ecitoninae, and Leptanilloidinae) under Dorylinae,[2]while Borowiec (2016) reviewed and revised the genera, resurrecting many genera which had previously been merged.[3]Dorylinae genera are suggested to have evolved sometime between102 to 74million years ago,subsequently undergoing rapidadaptive radiationevents during their early history.[2]
