, appear to be unique among ants in that both queens and males are ergatoid. Little is known about the mating system of either species. Males were collected from 5–30 January, and one ergatoid queen was collected under a rock on March 20, indicating that the ergatoid queens of this species found nests independently. The larger size of queens makes them relatively easy to differentiate from workers, but males and workers are similar in size and color such that caste must be verified using a hand lens or microscope. It is unknown if males continue to produce sperm throughout their life, as occurs in ergatoid males of some species of
