occurs in mesophyl forest throughout the state of Chiapas, Mexico, from sea level to nearly 1700m. It can be a common epigaeic forager, recruiting rapidly to baits on the ground and often recruiting major workers to baits. A nest was observed beneath a stone.

shows abundant geographic variation in traits, and some intra-populational variation. The metallic purple sheen is very strong in some populations (lowland areas of Lacandon rainforest, mid-elevation Pacific slope of southern Sierra Madre de Chiapas), faint in others (Laguna Metzabok and Naha, 500-1000m in the Lacandon area), and absent in others (mid-elevation sites in central and northern portions of Sierra Madre de Chiapas). Foveolate sculpture on the lateral pronotum is usually well developed. A population in the central portion of the Sierra Madre de Chiapas (near Custepec) has the faintest pronotal sculpture observed among all the material examined (that and the lack of purple sheen make minor workers indistinguishable from
