| Type notes | 1) No indication of number of specimens is given but probably just one as Guérin-Méneville, 1838 says “Individu neutre”. 2) Dias & Lattke, 2021: 22, imply that a lectotype was designated by Diller, 1990: 70, but this designation refers only to Dinoponera gigantea , not to Dinoponera grandis . 3) According to Horn & Kahle, 1935: 99, Guérin’s Hymenoptera material was split between MNHN, MSNG, and ZSBS, but some are also present in NNML. |
