Formica coxalis

Holotype worker (major) in. Labelled “Aru 45.” There is also a minor worker in, labelled “Aro 45” and with a blue Smith det. label. In the original description Smith mentions only the major worker. The minor is therefore excluded from the type-series. Note also the different spellings, Aru versus Aro.
