Primary type information:
Type-material: holotype worker. Type-locality: Indonesia: Celebes (= Sulawesi), Tondano, “Tond” (A.R. Wallace). Type-depository: OXUM.
Type notes:
A second specimen in OXUM, labelled “Tond 9,” is identical to the holotype but the slight difference in data probably indicates that it is not from the same sample.
