Primary type information:
Primary type material: syntype workers (number not stated). Primary type locality: Germany: Nassau, Obersbach footpath, viii.1851 (
P.A. Schenck). Primary type depository: probably
SMFM (perhaps also
UMPU).
Type notes:
1)
Seifert, 1988a: 161, does not include type material, but
Seifert, 1990: 10, cites “two worker specimens ex coll. Schenck”,
SMFM, without saying if these are type material. 2) Schenck’s Hymenoptera specimens originally in
UMPU (
Horn & Kahle, 1936: 242); later transferred to
SMFM.
