sp. nov. strongly differs from other members of the group by having distinctly yellow body colouration in major and minor workers. Additionally, major workers have head, in lateral view, sub-oval and elongate with slightly convex dorsal and ventral sides, and first gastral tergite is entirely smooth. Minor workers of this species can be also separated by a short antennal scape which
