| Type notes | 1) Original description cites “a small series of workers”. 2) According to Cardenas et al., 2021: 26, a specimen of Mycetomoellerius zeteki deposited at NHMB bears a ‘‘cotype’’ (i.e., syntype) label in error. The data label reads as follows ‘[Barro Colo. I C.Z. 3441 NAWeber] [17.vi.56 3441] [Trachymyrmex zeteki Weber] [ANTWEBCASENT0912534] [type].’ It is not possible that this specimen, collected in 1956, 18 years after the Mycetomoellerius zeteki type series was collected, is a type specimen of that species. |
