Linepithema micans is a small species of ant from the genus Linepithema which was described by Forel in 1908. This ant is endemic to southern South America.[1] In Brazil, it is considered a pest of vineyards in acting as the main species associated with the coccid Eurhizococcus brasiliensis (Wille, 1922) (Hemiptera: Margarodidae)[2]. It is still a poorly studied species. Their abundant larvae are round and whitish [3], almost indistinguishable from the proximate species Linepithema humile,[4] better known as the invasive Argentine ant.
