The photomontage of a
worker shown on Antweb as agile is collated from http://www.antweb.org/specimen.do?name=casent0280910.
This,
however, appears to be slightly small; with short scapes, SI = 100,
type SI 112-119 (Bolton, 1980); no clear metanotal groove; and, a
smaller postpetiole when viewed from above. The mandibles also
appear to be weakly striate as opposed to smooth. In the absence of
photos of the type, it cannot be verified.
