Mycocepurus smithii

''Mycocepurus smithii'' is an attine fungus-growing ant from Latin America. While a widely reported study from 2009 claimed that the species consists exclusively of females which reproduce asexually a latter work in 2011 found evidence of sexual reproduction is some populations. In many colonies queen reproduces by parthenogenesis and all other ants in a colony are female clones of the queen. The ants cultivate a garden of fungus inside their colony grown with pieces of dead vegetables and other insects. It is this capacity for farming which initially prompted research into the species as a basal genus member would provide insight into the natural history of the fungal-cultivating ant tribe, Attini.
== Description ==

Ants of the genus ''Mycocepurus'' are distinctly recognizable for the crown-like cluster of horns on their promesonotum, the fused mesonotum and pronotum on the front of their alitrunk or midsection. ''M. smithii'' has sharp, protruding propodeal (posterior of the alitrunk) spines unlike ''M. obsoletus'' whose propodeal spines are blunt. Workers also do not have developed promesonotal spines in the center of their crown.
