Primary type information:
Primary type material: lectotype worker (by designation of
Booher, 2019: 403). Primary type locality: lectotype U.S.A.: District of Columbia, nr Washington, bank of Potomac River (
A. Forel). Primary type depository:
MHNG. Primary type specimen:
CASENT0909339 (lectotype).
Type notes:
1) Original type series may have been more than one worker, although
Forel, 1901j: 399, appears to describe only one specimen. 2)
Brown, 1953g: 61, refers only to a holotype, and
Booher, 2019 cites the lectotype as “a unique syntype”. 3) If
Brown, 1953g is correct then the lectotype designation is redundant.
