|---|---|
| Forms | w. |
| Bioregion | Nearctic |
| Locality | MEXICO (Baja California Sur) |
| Etymology | Pergande did not indicate the derivation of the specific epithet, julianus, but it seems likely that it referred to the type locality “San Julio”, given that Julian is Julio. (Source: Johnson et al., 2022: 42.) |
| Primary type information | Primary type material: lectotype worker (by designation of Johnson et al., 2022: 40). Primary type locality: lectotype Mexico: Lower California (=Baja California Sur, San Julio, no date, #4479 (G. Eisen). Primary type depository: CASC. Primary type specimen: CASTYPE00619 (lectotype). |
| Secondary type information | Secondary type material: 5 paralectotype workers. Secondary type locality: same as for lectotype. Secondary type depository: USNM. (Source: Johnson et al., 2022: 42.) |
| Type notes | 1) Original description cites 7 syntype workers. 2) Wheeler & Creighton, 1934: 370, refer to “types taken by Pergande”, but in the introduction to Pergande, 1894: 161, Gustav Eisen is named as the collector. |
