Tetramorium scabrosum (Smith, 1859) valid
Myrmica scabrosa Smith, 1859a: 147 (w.) INDONESIA (Aru Is). Australasia.
Primary type information: Primary type material: lectotype worker (by designation of Bolton, 1977: 119). Primary type locality: lectotype Indonesia: Aru Is (A.R. Wallace). Primary type depository: OXUM (lectotype). Primary type specimen: CASENT0901373 (lectotype). Type notes: 1) Donisthorpe, 1932c: 455, cites 2 worker syntypes in OXUM (only one now present (= lectotype)). 2) A very dirty specimen (now cleaned and remounted), identical to the OXUM specimen but without data cards, was found in BMNH. It is suspected that this specimen was originally the second OXUM syntype (Bolton (unpublished notes) 1978).
