Figures

Fig. 8. Distribution map, face view, lateral view of petiole-AIV, and dorsal view of AIII-AIV of Syscia minuta (holotype worker), S. parva (holotype worker), S. JTL067 (worker,CASENT0644012),S. pollula (holotype worker), S. JTL069 (worker,CASENT0644008),S. JTL068 (queen,CASENT0613276),S. austrella (holotype worker), S. JTL037 (worker, CASENT0635747), S. quisquillis Arizona form (worker, FMNHINS0000095772), and S. boudinoti (holotype worker). Species are in order of mean HW,which is shown in the lower left of the distribution map. Scale bars 0.1 mm for S. minuta to S. JTL037, 0.2 mm for S. quisquillis Arizona form and S. boudinoti. On distribution maps, red dots are sites with UCE sequence data. Red boxes are type locality.
