is found in two distinct color varieties. Workers in the type series and several additional samples are light-brown with the gaster and appendages ferrugineous. Other samples have the gaster and appendages brown with the remainder of the body piceous. Intermediate forms are so far unknown. Gynes in the the type sample are concolorous, males strictly bicolored. The species is not to be mixed up with any other by the large eyes and the unique promesonotal shield. Known from south-western and western coastal Australia.
