Wheeleriella adulatrix Santschi, 1913 Wheeleriella santschii insidiosa Santschi, 1926 Wheeleriella santschii rufescens Santschi, 1926 Monomorium santschii is a species of ant that is native to Tunisia.
The most famous species in the genus Monomorium is the highly invasive pharaoh ant, Monomorium pharaonis.
It is a parasitic ant that has no worker caste.
The queen enters the colony of a different species and, probably by employing a pheromone, she forces the host workers to kill their queen.
She then uses these workers as slaves to bring up her own offspring.
