Leptanilloides
''Leptanilloides'' is a genus of ants in the subfamily Dorylinae. ''Leptanilloides'' is an uncommonly collected genus with subterranean habits in the New World Andean and sub-Andean tropics. Taxonomy With cryptic and eyeless worker ants, the genus was included in the ant subfamily Cerapachyinae until the establishment of a separate subfamily, Leptanilloidinae, hypothesized as the sister group to the Cerapachyinae and all other members of the dorylomorphs. However, they were synonymized with the previous dorylomorph subfamilies (including the Leptanilloidinae) under Dorylinae.
