:Abstract: A redescription, rank elevation, and lectotype designation of the neglected taxon Ponera coarctata var. testacea EMERY, 1895 are published. Two different morphometric approaches resulted in a clear separation of testacea from its sister species coarctata (LATREILLE, 1802). P. testacea is abundant in the Mediterranean region but is also widely distributed in Central Europe where it spreads north to 51°30’N. It is more xerothermophilic than coarctata and seems to avoid shaded, moister woodland habitats.

Ponera testacea war als "Variation" von P. coarctata fast in Vergessenheit geraten. In der hier zitierten Arbeit von Csösz & Seifert (2003) wurde sie in den Artstatus erhoben und, neben P. coarctata, neu beschrieben. Beide Arten kommen in Mittel- und Südeuropa weit verbreitet und auch nebeneinander vor. Alle bisherigen Funde von "Ponera coarctata" müssten nun überprüft werden, ob es sich wirklich um diese Art, oder doch um P. testacea handelt.
