Strongylognathus huberi Forel 1874

Description

Strongylognathus huberi Forel, 1874

(Figs 1A, 4A) 2 syntypes (☿): “ S. huberi ☿ Fully ” [Switzerland, canton Valais]; 1 ♀ “ Str huberi ♀ Type Fully 28.VIII”. Forel (1874) mentioned that both males and females, were unknown to him when describing S. huberi. Therefore, the single female – although marked with the word “Type” – obviously does not belong to the syntype series. The label of the workers fits perfectly with further syntype specimens shown on AntWeb (2016).
