Note: Until recently, North America species in the genus Stigmatomma were placed in the genus Amblyopone. This change was included in a recent paper by Yoshimura and Fisher (2012): Yoshimura M, Fisher BL (2012) A Revision of Male Ants of the Malagasy Amblyoponinae (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) with Resurrections of the Genera Stigmatomma and Xymmer.
