{Camponotus ? evansi major}The photomontage is of a major worker from Iran; collected by Maryam Seiri (07). Compared with the Crawley description this appears very similar, perhaps a little smaller; the overall colouration, pilosity and sculpture is the same.


{Camponotus ? evansi major}The photomontage is of a second major worker from Iran; collected by Maryam Seiri (07).


{Camponotus ? evansi minor}The photomontage is of minor workers from Iran; collected by Maryam Seiri (07).
