Typhlatta Smith 1857

Creators

Description

Gen. Typhlatta.

Mandibles triangular; eyes obsolete; flagellum 9-jointed; petiole of the abdomen formed of 2 nodes.

The above characters are those of the worker of the species; probably an examination of the other sexes would present other very distinctive generic characters, particularly in the neuration of the wings: the palpi I have not examined.
