1)
Baroni Urbani, 1977e: 74, cites 1 worker syntype in
NHMB. 2) The worker in
NHMB is labeled 'D. gracilipes May/Friedrichsi For type/Cochinchina'. 3) There is a series of 5 workers in
MNHU with type labels, of which only one has an original label. This label has the name and 'type' in the same handwriting as Forel syntypes in
MHNG, but has the male symbol. There is no locality label. 4) 5 worker and 3 male syntypes in
MHNG. [Z. Lieberman 2024]
