Abstract:
Pheidole nodus (Smith, 1874) belongs to a famously hyperdiverse and ecologically dominant ant genus. The mitochondrial genome of P. nodus is 15,579 bp in length, and the overall base composition is 78.6% AT. It includes 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and a control region. Phylogenetic trees show that P. nodus is more closely related to Wasmannia than to Atta. These sequence data will play an important role in the investigation of the phylogenetic relationships and taxonomy of the group Attini.
