Strumigenys baudueri (Emery, 1875) is reported for the first time from South Tyrol, Italy. Workers from two locations were captured from soil core samples using the
Berlese method. The individuals originated from a cultivated vineyard and a dry grassland of low altitude in the Adige / Etsch Valley and were previously misidentified and reported as Strumigenys argiola (Emery, 1869).
