As one of the 17 megadiverse countries of the world and with four biodiversity hotspots represented in its borders, India is home to an impressive diversity of life forms. However, much work remains to document and catalogue the species of India and their geographic distributions, especially for diverse invertebrate groups. In the present study, a comprehensive and critical list of Indian ant species is provided with up-to-date state-wise distribution. A total of 828 valid species and subspecies names belonging to 100 genera are listed from India. Potential erroneous data, misidentifications and dubious distributional records that may exist in the literature are also identified. The present exhaustive listing of Indian ants will provide a holistic view about diversity and distribution and will also help to identify major undersampled areas where future sampling and taxonomic efforts should be directed.

The Indian subcontinent is well known for its high biodiversity, varied environments and habitats, and interesting geological history. However, much work remains to document and catalogue the species of India and their geographic distributions, especially for diverse invertebrate groups. The country, with a total land area of over 3.2 million km2, is positioned on the Indian Plate (the northern portion of Indo-Australian plate) which separated from Gondwanaland during the late Cretaceous, then collided with Eurasia in the Cenozoic (
Most of the country’s land can be assigned to one of two ecozones, the Palaearctic and Indo-Malayan, and 13 terrestrial ecoregions (
Approximately 21% of the country’s landmass is covered by forests (tree canopy density >10%), of which 12% comprises moderately or very dense forests (tree canopy density >40%) (
Current data about the diversity and distribution of Indian ants is provided in this work. Ants constitute an important fraction of the animal biomass in terrestrial ecosystems and respond to stress on a much finer scale compared to vertebrates (
In the present study we provide a comprehensive and critical list of Indian ants with current known state-wise distribution. Our aim is to consolidate previous data, to identify potential erroneous data, misidentifications, dubious distributional records, and more generally to provide a holistic view about the diversity and distribution of Indian ants. This list should also help identify major undersampled areas where future sampling and taxonomic efforts should be directed.
Species lists were compiled for 28 Indian states and two union territories (Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Delhi). Data from Union territories of Chandigarh were merged with Punjab, Dadra and Nagar Haveli with Maharashtra, Daman and Diu with Goa, Lakshadweep with Kerala, and data for the state of Telangana were merged with Andhra Pradesh. These lists have been generated based on the literature review of published material, physical examination of material lying in Natural History Museum, London; Indian depositories; personal collection of the first author and websites (cited in the reference section). Additionally, the outcome of recent surveys in approximately the last 15 years in the various regions of India have also significantly enriched the data and have added to the much needed distributional data of various species. Morphospecies have not been included in the list and species name validity, authority and spelling conform to
The continuing accumulation of distributional records and knowledge on species habitats facilitates the identification of previously cited erroneous distributions. This is especially facilitated by the compilation of large global databases and visualization tools like Antweb.org and GABI/antmaps.org Some of the material cited in the earlier literature have been found to bear either erroneous data in terms of locality, or erroneously presented from a region (e.g. potential occurrence), as in the latter case the concerned depositories couldn’t verify the existence of such a material in their possession. Additionally, some of the specimens recorded in the old literature do not have specific locality labels, instead bear labels such as “Northwest Provinces”, “Western India”, “Himalaya”, “Panchmarhi Hills”, “India” to mention a few. Furthermore, as commented by
From India, distributional data for 828 species and subspecies is listed, representing 100 genera grouped in 10 subfamilies. In terms of species richness, the subfamily

Despite including nearly a third of the global ant generic richness (100/323), no genera are known to be endemic to India.
Two biogeographically significant regions of India, Himalaya and Western Ghats harbour a large number of ant species. 656 species from 88 genera were recorded from Himalaya, and 455 species from 75 genera were recorded from the Western Ghats.
From a total 828 species, 256 species (31%) we considered endemic to India and approximately 71% of these endemics are exclusively concentrated in two of the above listed biodiversity hotspots. Although we feel that some of the Indian states are underrepresented in the existing data due to inadequacy of surveys, based on the currently available data the state of West Bengal has the highest number of species (382) representing 65 genera followed by state of Sikkim with 276 species representing 69 genera.
The endemism of Indian ants (31%) is much higher than for birds (4.3%), fishes (8%), angiosperms (10%) or mammals (11%), lower than amphibians (49%) and most similar to reptiles (29%) (
With 828 species recorded, India represents one of the richest countries in the Indo-Malayan region. India remains less diverse than China with over 950 species recorded (
List and geographic position of Indian states considered in this study
Generic (
We present, for the first time, patterns of species richness for the different Indian states, and thereby provide a more detailed biogeographic picture of ant richness. Above all, these results reveal large areas lacking surveys and/or taxonomic resolution on the local myrmecofauna (Figure
These gaps in our current knowledge underscores the need for vigorous sampling and identification programs to target specific regions of India. Moreover, due to this incomplete knowledge, the true richness of the Indian ant fauna cannot be assessed with high confidence at this time. However, in light of the undersampling of most regions of the country, we expect the true richness to be greater than 1000 species.
Among the species present in India, 24 species are considered here as non-native (see Table

As some of the states/regions are clearly undersampled, future explorations will reveal more species diversity of ants from India. Similarly, upcoming taxonomic revisions will redefine species boundaries, species distributions and affinities with adjoining biogeographic regions. Consequently, the data presented here marks a waypoint in the effort towards elucidating the regional diversity and distribution of Indian ants. In light of the ecological importance of ants in most terrestrial ecosystems, the relatively poor available knowledge of ants in most Indian states, and the high level of endemism of Indian ants, we encourage urgent, large-scale, and sustained efforts to monitor, characterize, and conserve the Indian myrmecofauna.
