Primary type specimen: ANTWEB CASENT0904936. Primary type depository: MCSN. (Source: Da Silva et al., 2022: 116.) Secondary type information: Secondary type material: 6 paralectotype workers.

Type notes: 1) The original description mentions syntype queens (number not stated), which are not listed as paralectotypes by Da Silva et al., 2022: 116. 2) Da Silva et al., 2022: 116 also mistakenly list the type locality as being Brazil: St. Thomas, whereas the original description lists it as "Isola de S. Tomasso" (= Virgin Is (St Thomas I.)). 3) Bolton also lists USNM as a paralectotype depository (not mentioned by Da Silva et al., 2022: 116).
