259 (w.)
DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO.
Afrotropic.
Primary type information:
Type-material: holotype (?) worker. Type-locality: unknown. Type-depository: MRAC.
Type notes:
1) No indication of number of specimens is given. 2) This taxon was published without any locality data. Most Crematogaster material mentioned in the publication was collected in the Democratic Republic of Congo (“Congo belge”), during 1920-21, by H. Schouteden; Crematogaster rustica possibly conforms to this pattern.
