. Breviora. . Figs. 1 and 2. Colobostruma cerornata new species, worker paratype. Fig. 1. Head; full-face (dorsal) view, right antenna and pilosity omitted. Fig. 2. Alitrunk, nodes and base of gaster, side view, pilosity omitted. Alitrunk as in Figure 2 (drawn from a paratype). Prome- sonotum gently convex, weakly submarginate along dorsolateral borders; humeral angles prominent, subacute, margined with white waxlike material, also edging the anterior pronotal border except in the middle. No promesonotal suture; alitrunk con- stricted at distinct metanotal groove. Propodeal lamellae (no teeth

No promesonotal suture; alitrunk con- stricted at distinct metanotal groove. Propodeal lamellae (no teeth distinguishable) waxlike, white, thick, soft and irregular, readily bent or distorted (as seen in paratypes). Petiole and postpetiole with waxlike borders, simulating modest spongiform appendages (as in Strumigenys). Gaster both above and below with coarse longitudinal costulae, waxlike at base, the dorsal costulae extending more than 1/3 the length of the basal seg- ment. Gaster otherwise loosely shagreened, weakly shining, as is also the posterior portion of the postpetiolar 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.
