We present the first descriptions of the karyotypes of Gigantiops destructor (Fabricius), an endemic Formicinae of the Amazonian region, which is the only living species in the tribe Gigantiopini, and of a species from the poorly-known cryptic genus Myrmicocrypta, which belongs to the Myrmicinae tribe Attini.", optnote="Export Date: 26 October 2011; Source: Scopus; Language of Original Document: English; Correspondence Address: Delabie, J.H.C.; Universidade Estadual de Santa Cruz, Rodovia Ilh{\'e}us-Itabuna, Km 16, 45650-000 Ilh{\'e}us, Bahia, Brazil", optnote="exported from refbase (http://php.ecofog.gf/refbase/show.php?record=367), last updated on Mon, 16 Jan 2012 15:44:06 -0300", issn="00379271 (Issn)", opturl="http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-80053947859&partnerID=40&md5=142992763ce7f101c354089110994d3b" }
