Dorylus (Alaopone) conradti Emery

Five soldiers and ten smaller workers from Niangara (Lang and Chapin), taken from the stomach of a frog (Hemisus marmoratum), agree perfectly with Emery's description and figures of the types from Togo, except that the largest workers measure only 4.5 to 5 mm., whereas Emery's specimens attained a length of (3.5 mm. The soldier is easily recognized by the coarsely punctate thorax and the very elongate head, which, with the closed mandibles, is nearly twice as long as broad.
