group workers is distinctive, the most striking feature being the strange morphology of the legs. The forelegs appear fossorial and the middle and hind legs squat and spiny. All six are short, strong, and powered by the enormously developed coxae, especially the hypertrophied procoxae. Add to this the eyeless head with elongate-triangular, downcurved mandibles, extremely flattened scapes, anteriorly marginate and plateau-like pronotum, strongly sloping anterior portion of propodeum in profile and bilaterally compressed anterior propodeal dorsum, and the result is an appearance that is unlikely to be confused with any other ponerine ant in the region.
