Brachymyrmex is a genus in the ant subfamily Formicinae. These ants are native to North and South America but several species have spread around the world with human commerce. The genus can be recognized by the combination of having 9 antennal segments (fewer than most ants) and the petiole concealed by the gaster in dorsal view. They are sometimes called "rover ants".
