s. Camacho et al, 2022 revised this genus, significantly reducing its size to only 32 valid extant species and 5 valid fossil species by splitting off most species into four formerly synonymized genera '' Alfaria'', '' Holcoponera'', '' Poneracantha'', and ''Stictoponera
''Stictoponera'' is a genus of ants in the subfamily Ectatomminae. They are found in Southeast Asia and Oceania. The genus was synonymized under ''Gnamptogenys'' for a long time, however Camacho et al. 2022 reinstated the validity of this genus. S ...

As of 2024, ''Gnamptogenys'' contains 37 species, five of which areextinct
Extinction is the termination of an organism by the death of its Endling, last member. A taxon may become Functional extinction, functionally extinct before the death of its last member if it loses the capacity to Reproduction, reproduce and ...
. This genus originally contained 146 species, but Camacho et al. 2022 moved many species into other genera.
