Dolichoderus moggridgei Forel, 1886 valid

Dolichoderus moggridgei Forel, 1886d: 243 (w.) INDIA (Assam). Indomalaya.

Primary type information: Primary type material: holotype worker. Primary type locality: India: Assam, Sibsagar (= Sivasagar) (no collector’s name). Primary type depository: MHNG (perhaps also IMKI). Type notes: The holotype may be lost; it is not present in MHNG as of 23 Oct. 2024. The fact that it was not imaged along with other MHNG types suggests that it was also not present in 2011. [Z. Lieberman]
