Resumen:
The cosmopolitan genus Solenopsis (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) is a large ant genus with 108 species in the New World (Bolton, 1995), of which 21 are known as fire or red ants (hormigas coloradas). They are aggressive and armed with a defensive sting. Some species are important plagues, as they have undergone steep increases in their population densities. This is especially true in urban areas of South America
