Protonym: Pachycondyla punctata
| Authorship | Smith, 1858a: 108 |
|---|---|
| Forms | w.m. |
| Bioregion | Neotropic |
| Locality | DOMINICAN REPUBLIC |
| Primary type information | Type-material: 1 syntype worker, 1 syntype male. Type-locality: St. Domingo (no further data). Type-depository: not in BMNH, presumed lost. |
| Type notes | The syntypes could not be found in BMNH. A queen of this species in BMNH, labelled as type of Platythyrea punctata, is correctly identified but has an incorrect label “P. pilosula Sm.”, and a white, rectangular label “Type. F. Smith coll. 79.22.” The original description of Platythyrea punctata did not mention a queen, and the date, (18)79, is far too late. |
