Head longer than broad, sides subparallel, posterior angles broadly rounded,border convex; rounded between anterior impressed portion and dorsal sur-face. Mandibles 5-dentate. Clypeus with five eighths of its length on thetruncated portion, quadrangular, distinctly margined laterally and straightat anterior border; strongly bicarinate for entire length, the carinae con-verging anteriorly, and with two lateral carinae on basal three area poorly defined, broadly triangular. Frontal carinae slightlydivergent, nearly straight, extending to a point a little in front of middle ofeyes. Antennal scapes surpassing occipital corners by a distance equal totheir width at tips; funicular joint as long as the second and third Fig. 45.— Camponotus (Colobopsis) loa Mann. Worker major. Lateral view of head,thorax, and petiole. The remaining joints, except the terminal, gradually shorter and stouter;terminal joint as long as the two preceding joints together. Eyes large andflat; situated at posterior thu-d of head. Thorax robust. Pronotum butslightly convex above, humeri broadly rounded. :Mesothorax rather flat, 374 bitlletin: mtseiim of comparative zoology. one and a third times as broad as long. Base of epinotum moderately convex,about as long as broad, rounding into the declivity, which is flat and a littlelonger than base. Petiolar scale in profile less than twice as high as thick,slightly convex in front, straight behind and flattened dorsally; from above,twice as broad as long, narrowly rounded and submargined laterally. Gasterelongate, legs stout. Moderately shining. Mandibles rugulose and striolate. Truncated por-tion of head more shi
