Crematogaster aurora is a valid species of myrmicine ant[1] that lived in Baltic Europe about 46 million to 43 million years ago during the Cenozoic era Eocene epoch. C. aurora has a similar look to the ant genus Acanthomyrmex and shares some similarities with the ant genus Pristomyrmex.[2] The fossil found of C. aurora is of a queen ant that is brown in coloration. It probably died by drowning in a lake approximately 46 million years ago.[3]
