Camponotus (Myrmoturba) maculatus subspecies miserabilis Santschi variety pessimus
,
new variety
The major worker measures only 6 to 6.5 min., the minor 5 to 5.5 min. Both agree closely with Santschi's description and figure of
miserabilis
, except in their considerably smaller size. The head of the major is distinctly narrower anteriorly, the cheeks being less convex and the frontal carina? are less approximated. Sculpture, pilosity, and color very much as in
miserabilis
.
Four major and five minor workers from Yakuluku (Lang and ('hapin), without further data.
