Type notes The original description of Strumigenys raymondi mentioned five short series which were a mixture of Strumigenys ludovici and Strumigenys simoni. However, Donisthorpe’s designated “type” specimen (= holotype) had its origin in series no. 20, now regarded as the type-series, with Mamet’s other series (nos. 8, 12, 19, 28) excluded.
