Apterostigma electropilosum is an extinct species of ant in the subfamily Myrmicinae known from a single possibly Miocene[1] fossil found on Hispaniola.

[2] The amber was produced by the extinct Hymenaea protera, which formerly grew on Hispaniola, across northern South America and up to southern Mexico.

The specimens were collected from an undetermined amber mine in fossil bearing rocks of the Cordillera Septentrional mountains, northern Dominican Republic.

The fossil was first studied by entomologist Ted R. Schultz of the National Museum of Natural History with his 2007 type description of the new species being published in the journal Memoirs of the American Entomological Institute.

The overall coloration of the species is hard to determine due to a sporadic microscopic coating of fine bubbles, possibly of oil or other liquid from punctures in the integument after entombment by the resin.
