Fig. 41.— Prenolepis (Nylanderia) stigmaticus Mann. Worker. Lateral view of head, thorax, and petiole. their scapes surpassing occipital corners by five eighths their length; first funicular joint nearly twice as long as'the second; joints three to seven about four times as long as broad; joints eight to ten a little shorter; terminal joint shorter than the two preceding joints together. Eyes large and convex, situ- ated in front of sides a little anterior to middle. Pronotum about as long as broad, sUghtly convex. Mesonotum much longer than broad; the flat meso- epinotal suture strongly impressed. Basal portion of epinotum very convex and rounding into the flat declivous surface which it equals in length; stigmata situated at middle of sides of declivity prominently tuberculate. Petiolar node broadly cuneiform. Shining, with shallow microscopic punctures on head. Mandibles subtly Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Harvard University.
