Primary type information:
Primary type material: lectotype major worker (by designation of Wilson, 2003a: 679). Primary type locality: lectotype Guatemala: Verapaz, Purula (Champion). Primary type depository: MHNG.
Secondary type information:
Secondary type material: 1 paralectotype minor worker. Secondary type locality: same as for lectotype. Secondary type depository: MHNG.
Type notes:
Forel’s description is based on what appears to be a single specimen. Wilson, 2003a: 679, designated a lectotype major worker and an attached paralectotype minor, saying of the latter, “not described by Forel but attached to lectotype major and evidently part of the type series.”
