Abstract:

*[Noted that P. megacephala generally does not co-occur with other dominant Pheidole species in the Pacific, such as P. fervens & P. oceanica. First record for P. megacephala from Cook Is. is from 1914, Line Is. is from 1922, & Swains I. is from 1940. Concluded that the P. teneriffana specimens listed by Santschi (1919) were actually P. megacephala.]
