is known only from the Amazon Basin and northward in South America to the Caribbean Coast of Colombia (Parque Tayrona, Magdalena, C. Kugler, and Serrania de Macuira, Guajira Peninsula, W. L. Brown and C. Kugler) and to Trinidad in the east (numerous collections, mainly by N. A. Weber). Although I have taken it several times N and NE of Manaus, I have never found it in the far west of Brasil, in the Tingo Maria area of Amazonian Peru, or the Villavicencio region of cisandean Colombia, and I think it m,ust be rare or local there, if it occurs at all in the western Amazon.

The trouble is that we have very poor samples of most of these forms, and their status remains vague and uncertain in some cases. I am treating them more or less arbitrarily as species here.

in its light ferruginous color, but has more complete striation; its male is unknown. Similar forms from Belize (former British Honduras) in MCZ may belong with very small males, only about half the size of the Grenadan males, but with somewhat similar terminalia. However, these males (from light traps at Hummingbird Gap) are not securely associated with workers, and I do not see what we can safely conclude from them until we know their workers.
