Description:
The profile of the mesosoma slopes gently and gradually down as it approaches the posterior margin. There is not a sudden and steep decline from the posterior of promesonotum to the anterior of the propodeum. Used in Antkey to separate Cardiocondyla, Crematogaster, Myrmica, Tetramorium, Vollenhovia and Wasmannia from Pheidole.

Description:
The gradual downward slope of the mesosomal profile is broken by a steep decline from the posterior of promesonotum to the anterior of the propodeum. Used in Antkey to separate Pheidole from Cardiocondyla, Crematogaster, Myrmica, Tetramorium, Vollenhovia and Wasmannia.
