Worker. Lateral view of thorax Moderately shining. Mandibles punctate and striate. Head, body, and appendages coriaceous-rugulose. Bred hairs long and fine, sparse on head, more abundant on gaster. Shorter appressed hairs sparse in head, body, and appendages. Color black. Legs light reddish brown. Lau: Kabara, Waquava. The structure of the head and petiole is almost identical with that of schmeltzii hut the more compressed and strongly backward-project- ing epinotum is entirely different, resembling somewhat that of an extreme form of lam in (it us. The subgenus Myrmegonia is made up of a complex of species, with.
