In dorsal view promesonotum typically pear-like, posterior end of mesonotum narrower and anguloconvex. Strigil of protibia with a basal tooth; meso and metatibiae with delicate spurs, finely and pectinate on distal half. Propodeal lobes small, with a posterodorsal angle. Propodeal spines straight and acuminate, rather short and thin with a narrow base, shorter than the distance separating their tips, projecting backwards and upwards at 45 °, usually parallel; sometimes a very feeble curve after the base. Petiole short, about as high as long but narrower; peduncle hidden by propodeal lobes; node seen in profile with anterior face slightly concave, forming a right angle with the dorsal surface which is rather flattened, followed by another angle with the concave posterior face, inclined down to the posterior margin. Postpetiole shorter than high and wide, height and width about equal; node profile typically with very short anterior and posterior vertical surfaces, united by a large convex one; sternal process strongly convex and globular, making 1 / 3 of the postpetiole height.</paragraph>

Male. Habitus, figures 6 - 7. Measurements and indices in tables 1 - 2. Smaller than queen. In full face view head slightly longer than broad, narrower before eyes, with shallow elongated antennal fossae, posterior half evenly rounded. Mandibles elongate, blade subtriangular; masticatory margin with three apical teeth followed by 2 - 3 teeth or denticles. Clypeus convex, anterior margin angulate, finely lamellar mesially. Malar space short. Frontal triangle shallow and weakly delimited. Frontal lobes poorly developed, but distinct as thin carinae with straight lateral margins that diverge posteriorly, originating from toruli. Antennae 13 - merous; scapes very short, shorter than or equal to combined length of next 2 segments; in profile scape base with a very faint dorsal flattening; length of second funicular segment equal to next two; funicular club of 5 segments. Eyes large and globular. Ocelli small, the antero-median 0.06 - 0.07 mm in diameter; distance between the posterior ocelli equal to 4 -

Mayrian furrows not impressed, weakened or absent posteriorly. Spurs of meso- and metatibia weakly pectinate. Metapleural lamellae small. Wings as in queen, but usually darker (figure 7). Propodeum with two small, dentiform spines or two more or less developed protuberences marked by carinae, surface between them smooth and shining; spiracles round and well marked. In profile petiole rather short, with an anterior peduncle mostly hidden by propodeal lobes; ventral margin straight or very weakly concave with an anterior denticle; node with an anterior face concave, summit convex with longitudinal rugulae running to posterior margin. Postpetiole shorter than high and wide, about as large as wide; anterior and dorsal surfaces of dorsum forming a convex slope with summit ending posteriorly by a short declivity; sternum longer than high, ventral margin convex.

Clypeus very faintly microsculptured, with or without short rugulae. Frontal triangle punctulate. Front with few rugulae, some reaching the ocellar triangle. Antenna with suberect to subdecumbent fine hairs longer than the width of segments, but shorter on funicular club. Pronotum densely shagreened; anterior and lateral areas of mesoscutum smooth and shining, Mayrian furrow as a thin line from which originate short rugulae, the medial ones longest. Meso- and metapleurae with parallel rugulae obliquely oriented; transverse grooves feebly impressed. Propodeal protuberences or spines with a row of fine erect hairs.

inhabits not only coniferous forest, but also mixed and rather open deciduous woods, from dry to more humid conditions. In Pennsylvania I found this ant in a stand of Populus with Acer and Betula trees. Colonies are small and their nests in different types of soil: sandy, earthy or rocky, under denuded surface or under leaf litter, lichens, mosses and rocks. Dennis (1938) reported a nest in a cavity in dead wood. Wesson and Wesson (1940) observed carton turrets as nest entrances.
