| description | In this paper the distribution in Mexico of the ant genus Thaumatomyrmex is analyzed. The Los Tuxtlas region in the state of Veracruz represents the most northern locality for this rare Neotropical genus. Body measurements and photographs of the two specimens collected are provided; the status of the species remains unclear due to the lack of definition on the species diagnostic characters. Rarity of the genus in Mexico is discussed. |

In this paper the distribution in Mexico of the ant genus Thaumatomyrmex is analyzed. The Los Tuxtlas region in the state of Veracruz represents the most northern locality for this rare Neotropical genus.

La especie encontrada en Los Tuxtlas, Veracruz, es el registro más norteño del género en América. Debido a la falta de definición en los caracteres diagnósticos de las especies del grupo ferox, no fue posible asignar con certeza un nombre específico al material, pudiendo ser tanto T. ferox como T. atrox. Se incluyen fotografías y medidas corporales de utilidad taxonómica de los dos ejemplares colectados. Finalmente se discute la rareza del género en México.
