Polyrhachis sinuata

The unique holotype of this species was collected foraging on low vegetation in open woodland along a walking track and, in spite of a subsequent search, no other specimens were found. Polyrhachis sinuata appears to be a rare species endemic to higher elevations along the summit of Lelet Plateau on New Ireland, Papua New Guinea.
