| Primary type information | Primary type material: holotype worker. Primary type locality: Brazil: (no further data). Primary type depository: BMNH. |
| Type notes | 1) Smith, 1853 says “I have only seen the single specimen in my own Collection”. 2) De Andrade & Baroni Urbani, 1999: 100, consider the type locality “certainly erroneous”, confirming the suspicion of Kempf, 1951: 116. Localities in Dominican Republic and Haiti are preferred, with possible representation also in Virgin Is (St Thomas I.), which Kempf, 1951 also considers “improbable”. |
