Atlas des Fourmis Luxembourgeoises (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) is a myrmecological atlas resulting of a five-year research project (2013–2017) conducted throughout the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and targeting all possible types of habitats in order to obtain the best possible representation of the fauna of Luxembourg ants, with their specificities and ecological requirements. The authors include a list of all 66 species that have been described in Luxembourg over the last more than one hundred years with an indication of their conservation status. This research led to the discovery of nineteen new species for Luxembourg. The presence of five species previously reported is considered doubtful, while five other species have no longer been found and are probably extinct. The atlas also includes a key to identify the different species present in Luxembourg as well as species sheets, all illustrated with numerous photos.
Atlas des Fourmis Luxembourgeoises (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) has a short trilingual summary in English, French, German.
