notes. In eastern New Guinea simtllimus is common everywhere in clearings and second-growth forest. Colonies apparently nest in the soil, and workers can be found foraging in leaf litter during both day and night. At the Laloki River in Papua a colony was found nesting in accumulated soil and vegetable debris in the primary fork of a tree a little less than two meters from the ground. Near Luganville, in the New Hebrides, a large colony, containing alate queens and males, was found in early January beneath a rotting log on the floor of lowland rain forest.
