Odontomachus rugosus
Smith, 1857
an obsolete combination of Anochetus rugosus (Smith, 1857)
Odontomachus rugosus
Smith, 1857a:
65 (w.)
SINGAPORE.
Indomalaya.
Primary type information:
Type-material: holotype worker. Type-locality: Singapore: (A.R. Wallace). Type-depository: OXUM.
Type notes:
The specimen labelled as type by Donisthorpe in OXUM bears two locality labels, one of which is “SAR” (= Sarawak), and the other “Gilolo” (= Halmahera), whereas the type-locality given by Smith, 1857a: 65 is Singapore. This is the only Smith collection specimen of Anochetus rugosus detected in OXUM or BMNH. Identity of the specimen appears correct; the labels may have been switched at some date after 1857.
