Monomorium harithe Collingwood & Agosti, 1996: 347 (w.) SAUDI ARABIA. Afrotropic.

Primary type information: Primary type material: holotype worker. Primary type locality: Saudi Arabia: Harithi, 19.iv.1985 (W. Büttiker). Primary type depository: NHMB. Primary type specimen: CASENT0913802. Secondary type information: Secondary type material: paratype workers (number not stated), 1 paratype queen. Secondary type locality: paratype workers with same data as holotype, paratype workers, paratype queen Saudi Arabia: Riyadh, 21.i.1980 (A.H. Talhouk), paratype workers Yemen: Taiz-Aden, 20.iii.1993 (C.A. Collingwood). Secondary type depository: unknown (perhaps WMLC, perhaps NHMB if Büttiker material was returned). Type notes: 1) The specimen cited as holotype by Sharaf et al., 2021: 28, does not match data given in the original description for either holotype or paratypes of Monomorium harithe, but does correspond with the data given for Monomorium najrane. 2) Collingwood & Agosti, 1996: 301, say “All type material is housed in NHMB and duplicates placed in appropriate institutes and museums of the contributing countries”; this apparently was never done.
