Primary type information:
Primary type material: 10 syntype queens. Primary type locality: Indonesia: Sunda Strait, nr Prinsen I. (= Panaitan I.), on deck of steamship, 5.i.1913 (
W. Karawajew). Primary type depository:
SIZK. Primary type specimen:
CASENT0917298.
Type notes:
1)
Kostyuk, 1976: 103, cites 5 queen syntypes in
SIZK. 2)
Radchenko et al., 2025: 494, cite 19 syntype workers in
SIZK, a caste not cited in the original description. However, the specimen code that they cite (
CASENT0917298) corresponds with a dealate queen, and they also mention "1 g" and "4 g" in the labels text. It is likely that "19 w" is an error.
