T. text Zootaxa 2009 2181 1 90 http://hol.osu.edu/reference-full.html?id=22820 journal article 22820 Pheidole bilimeki Pheidole bilimeki Mayr, 1870: 985 . Lectotype major worker: Mexico (Bilimek) [ NMW ] (examined). Pheidole rectiluma Wilson, 2003: 493 , figs. Holotype major worker and associated paratype minor worker: Mexico, Tamaulipas, Sa. de Guatemala, Rancho del Cielo, 1070m, 23 Jul 1965 (Cornell Univ. Mexico Field Party) [ MCZ ] (examined). New synonymy. Comments The Pheidole bilimeki complex was reviewed by Longino and Cox (2009) (full synonymy presented there). On subsequent examination of the types of P. rectiluma , they were found to fall within the range of variation of typical P. bilimeki . The types of P. rectiluma match the typical widespread dark form, not the yellow form of southern Mexico.
