This history item belongs to Atta (Mycocepurus) goeldii Forel, 1893

Its current taxon owner(s) is Mycocepurus goeldii

[Note: there is some uncertainty concerning the publication dates of Forel, 1893h, and Forel, 1893j. Forel, 1893h has a “séance” date only, 2.xii.1893, which means that publication was some time after this. Forel, 1893j is accurately dated as 29.xii.1893 (obtained from Wheeler, 1912: 759). In view of the statement by Forel, 1893h: 603 that Mycocepurus would be “described soon in a work on the ants of St Vincent”, it is accepted here that the Forel, 1893h publication appeared first.]
