Material examined. None available.

Material not physically examined. Amber Road, Katong, 28 Jul 2014, J.K. Wetterer leg., vial #337 (MSC) .

Literature. Wetterer & Sharaf (2017).

Habitat/Ecology. Specimens were collected from a wooded area in an urban residential district.

Remarks. Workers of this species can be distinguished from most other congeners by a matte and reticulate punctate mesopleuron, and short propodeal spines. These ants are apparently native to the Old World tropics (Wetterer & Sharaf 2017), but have spread to other regions, including the New World, mainly by human commerce.
