Labidus spinolae Shuckard, 1840 an obsolete combination of Dorylus spinolae (Shuckard, 1840)
Labidus (Typhlopone) spinolae Shuckard, 1840c: 327 (w.) NO LOCALITY GIVEN. Afrotropic.
Primary type information: Type-material: holotype worker. Type-locality: none given (G.H.K. Thwaites). Type-depository: unknown (“in the collection of Mr Thwaites”.) Type notes: Smith, 1858a: 111, says that the single specimen was in “sugar casks from South America”. There is no such statement in the original description, but if the comment is correct then Dorylus spinolae can not be a Dorylus species.
