• [Note: the genus-group name Lobognathus was an erroneous entry by Enzmann, 1947b for Messor lobognathus Andrews, 1916a, hence Lobognathus is automatically a junior synonym of Veromessor (Brown, 1949a: 49).]
• Lobognathus as junior synonym of Messor: Bolton, 1982: 338; Hölldobler & Wilson, 1990: 14.
