Type notes 1) Bingham, 1903: 66, gives locality data as “Upper Burma: Tenasserim, Karennee (C.T. Bingham)”, which is probably the type locality. 2) Hamer et al., 2024: 179, erroneously refer to an ergatoid queen collected by M. T. Hamer in Hong Kong on 3.ix.2023 and deposited in IBBL as a paratype.
