| Type notes |
1) Original description also includes syntype queens (number not stated). 2) Da Silva et al., 2022: 116, mistakenly list the type locality as Brazil: St. Thomas, whereas the original description lists it as "Isola de S. Tomasso" (= Virgin Is (St Thomas I.)). 3) Bolton, 2000: 184, also cites original syntypes in USNM. |
