Description
Worker minor. Length 12.8 mm. Larger than the type. Differentiated from it by the strange cylindrical node which is 2.5ÿtimes longer than wide and nowhere forms a distinct summit. Its first half beyond a short anterior face is almost horizontal, hardly rising at all, the second half goes through a curve from the first is simply steeply sloping. The middle of the base surface of the epinotum of this single specimen is saddle shaped (by chance?) quite like the type. Cape York Peninsula. Queensland.
