Camponotus esuriens (Smith, 1858) junior synonym of current valid taxon Camponotus atriceps (Smith, 1858)

Formica esuriens Smith, 1858a: 54 (s.w.) MEXICO. Neotropic.

Primary type information: Primary type material: syntype major and minor workers (numbers not stated). Primary type locality: Mexico: (no further data). Primary type depository: BMNH.
