return to key {link to the Hymenoptera Name Server} Type location Kenya (Camponotus (Myrmamblys) viri n. sp., Santschi, 1915c: 265, illustrated, queen) Mombasa; queen only described (see Bolton, 1995) .

{Camponotus viri queen}Santschi's (1915c) description is at {original description}.
The head shape is so clearly similar to members of the subgenus Paramyrmamblys and not to those in Myrmamblys that I have transferred this to Paramyrmamblys.
