Characters of hirsuta species group (workers)
1 Each glandular patch on the tergite of AIII consists of a mass of large, coarse, closely-packed, deep punctures. The individual punctures are separated only by narrow, flattened rims between them and the surfaces of the rims are densely microsculptured and dull. The glandular patches are not depressed into the surface of the sclerite and each puncture gives rise to a short, curved seta that is subappressed and directed posteriorly ( Figs 82–83 View FIGURES 82–83 ).
2 Cephalic pilosity relatively dense. In full-face view side of head in front of eye with several (more than one) projecting setae of varying length; side of head below outline of eye with 2–3 setae that project laterally; side of head behind level of eye with several projecting setae of varying length. In profile the entire dorsum of the head and body with numerous standing setae of varying lengths, far more than the strictly limited number described below for the maculata group and too many to count easily.
3 With mesofemur in dorsal view standing setae occur on both the anterior and posterior surfaces; setae are always present and are not restricted to the apex of the femur. Metafemur in the same view is similarly hirsute.
