Remarks

This species was described from an unspecified number of females. One syntype was found, although there may have been others as Cameron made detailed observations on the length of the hairs on the antennae, propodeum and petiole, which in the surviving syntype are all covered with glue. The syntype is mounted on a card, much matted with glue, right antenna missing beyond a5, and left antenna obscured by glue but probably missing beyond the scape.
