Donisthorpe, 1932c: 473, cites 1 worker in
OXUM (confirmed by Bolton (unpublished notes) 1978). 2) Three other specimens labelled “Morty Isld” are also present in
OXUM, but these appear to originate in a different series from the holotype; in addition, three more workers from this series are in
BMNH (Bolton (unpublished notes 1978).
