Polyrhachis hoffmanni

Identification
Polyrhachis hoffmanni is very similar to the sympatric Polyrhachis archeri and Polyrhachis anderseni but differs in the shape of the petiolar node, as discussed in the remarks section of P. archeri. Polyrhachis hoffmanni can also be easily separated by the relatively long hairs on most body surfaces which are completely absent in the two other species.
