• Combination in Neivamyrmex: Borgmeier, 1955: 481.
• Senior synonym of Neivamyrmex raptans (and its junior synonyms Neivamyrmex abstinens, Neivamyrmex rebellatum): Bolton, 1995b: 291.
• [The name Neivamyrmex raptans (Forel, 1911) was proposed as a replacement for Neivamyrmex raptor (Forel, 1911) because of the name Eciton raptor Smith, 1855c: 169. The last name is, however, an incorrect subsequent spelling, in the figure legends, of Eciton rapax Smith, 1855: 163. As an incorrect subsequent spelling raptor Smith, F. is unavailable, and therefore does not enter into homonymy.].

Junior synonyms

• Neivamyrmex abstinens (Ihering, 1912)
• Neivamyrmex raptans (Forel, 1911)
• Neivamyrmex raptans rebellatum (Santschi, 1934)
