Flat lying covering of hairs on the body is somewhat longer: there is a sequence of pricks on the inner edge of the rear tibias (as with the type). Thorax is somewhat darker in the major worker also the upper half of the fore coxa and femurs are more or less darkened. Length 10mm. Queen similar to the major worker; but the head is more trapeziform, to the front strongly narrowed, with straight sides and posterior border and not totally right angled posterior corners.
