Tetramorium striolatum

Identification
Heterick (2009) - Tetramorium striolatum includes reddish specimens with a finely striolate basal sector of the first gastral tergite, and relatively massive petiolar nodes. Some doubt is here expressed that these are conspecific with other specimens that are orange, with, at most, basally shagreenate gasters and with less massive petiolar nodes.
