Type notes:
1)
Rakotonirina & Fisher, 2022: 83, mention a syntype alate queen, now a paralectotype. However, the species was originally described only from the worker caste. The queen specimen comes from
Forel, 1892o: 232 and is not type series, therefore redundant as a paralectotype. 2) Other original syntypes with same data but (
P. Camboué).
