Abstract:
The Camponotus aureopilus Viehmeyer, 1914 species group contains nine known species from Papua New Guinea and Australia. Recently a tenth species, Camponotus royi sp.n., has been discovered from west-central Papua New Guinea rainforests. This new species is described and the key to this species group modified to accommodate it.
