Crematogaster (undet.) species T²
WORKER - TL 1.94 mm, HL 0.56, HW 0.59, SL 0.37, PW 0.34
Colour yellow-brown, gaster darker, shiny. Pilosity sparse, few
erect hairs. Profile of the pro- and mesonotum smoothly convex,
slightly impressed metanotal groove. Propodeum passing through a
convex curve, spines short, acute and triangular upturned. Petiole
trapezoidal straight sided, anterior slightly wider, anterolateral
corners acute. Subpetiolar spine moderately large and blunt.
From Nigeria, the specimens were reared by a female found
and kept by me in the laboratory at CRIN. This might give a misleading
impression of the normal worker size. |
