Primary type information:
Type-material: syntype workers (number not stated). Type-localities: Myanmar (“Burma”) (Bingham), and India: Assam (Long). Type-depositories: MHNG, NHMB.
Type notes:Jaitrong & Yamane, 2011a: 25, attempt to designate a lectotype, saying, ”Six syntype workers (two pins, three workers on each) from Burma, Assam (MHNG, examined). One worker among them (top on a pin) is selected as the lectotype, the others as paralectotypes.” This does not isolate the lectotype as ants from two series, from two countries, by two different collectors, are involved.
