Camponotus (Orthonotomyrmex) lateralis var. rebeccae Forel 1913

Investigated was a type worker from MHN Genève with missing gaster, labeled ‘Typus’, ‘Damascus’, ‘U.Sahlb.’, ‘ Camponotus (Orthonotomyrmex) lateralis Ol. v. Rebeccae type For.’, ‘CASENT0910432’. Running this type specimen as wild-card in a 5-class LDA considering all RAV-corrected characters except RipD (because of missing gaster), it is allocated with p = 0.9965 to the cluster of 36 ants given in Tab. 2. The posterior probabilities of the type specimen of belonging to other species were: p = 0.0035 for C. lateralis morph 1 and each p = 0.0000 for C. lateralis morph 2, C. anatolicus and C. honaziensis (for sample size see Tab. 2).
