Primary type information:
Primary type material: 1 syntype soldier, 1 syntype queen. Primary type locality: Brazil: (no further data). Primary type depository: NHMW.
Type notes:De Andrade & Baroni Urbani, 1999: 700, imply that type-material is absent from NHMW, attributing this information to Kempf, 1958a; but actually Kempf, 1958a: 74, states that type-material of “a female and a damaged soldier” are present there.
