Ant distribution data
New Zealand distribution
Distribution records of all ant species in New Zealand, endemic and introduced (of confirmed establishment), based primarily on records from insect collections around New Zealand, but also including records from researchers, government agencies, private collectors, and student projects.
Information sheets and distribution maps are supplied for each species.
This version includes several taxonomic and nomenclatural changes, all of which are listed under Species list and factsheets.
New Zealand Map Grid (NZMG) numbers and the easting and northing coordinates were obtained from TOPOMAP software based on the original descriptions from the location details associated with the specimen or sent to us.
USER-BEWARE: The coordinates listed here may thus contain small errors from where the species was actually collected.
