First: Yes, we keep Teleutomyrmex Kutter, 1950 and Anergates Forel, 1874.
All species in these little genera with the names Teleutomyrmex Kutter, 1950 and Anergates Forel, 1874 and, of course, the big genus Tetramorium Mayr, 1855.
Second: No, we don’t keep Teleutomyrmex Kutter, 1950 and Anergates Forel, 1874 but yes, we keep Tetramorium Mayr, 1855.
But: Only a few species in the genus Tetramorium Mayr, 1855 following Ward et al., 2015 (“2014”)…
Tetramorium inquilinum Ward, Brady, Fisher & Schultz, 2015
= Tetramorium schneideri (Kutter, 1950)
Tetramorium kutteri (Tinaut, 1990), still needs a new name
Tetramorium seiferti (Kiran & Karaman, in Kiran, et al. 2017)
Tetramorium buschingeri (Lapeva-Gjonova, in Kiran, et al. 2017)
Tetramorium atratulus (Schenck, 1852)
= Tetramorium friedlandi (Creighton, 1934)
Tetramorium microgyna Santschi, 1918
Tetramorium parasiticum Bolton, 1980
Third: No, we don’t keep Teleutomyrmex Kutter, 1950, Anergates Forel, 1874 and Tetramorium Mayr, 1855.
Or: …, if you follow the line further then Ward et al., 2015 (“2014”), a few species in the genus Strongylognathus Mayr, 1853.
Strongylognathus inquilinum (Ward, Brady, Fisher & Schultz, 2015)
= Strongylognathus schneideri (Kutter, 1950)
Strongylognathus kutteri (Tinaut, 1990), still needs a new name
Strongylognathus seiferti (Kiran & Karaman, in Kiran, et al. 2017)
Strongylognathus buschingeri (Lapeva-Gjonova, in Kiran, et al. 2017)
Strongylognathus atratulus (Schenck, 1852)
= Strongylognathus friedlandi (Creighton, 1934)
Strongylognathus microgyna (Santschi, 1918)
Strongylognathus parasiticum (Bolton, 1980)

And a little sidestep, not about ants but about orchids:
