WORKER - TL 3.6 mm (Bolton, 1980: 264, illustrated).

The photomontage of the type worker is collated from http://www.antweb.org/specimen.do?name=casent0249010.
Note: Assuming the Antweb scales are correct, this matches the Bolton (1980: 264) size: TL 3.6 mm, HL 0.80, HW 0.79, PW 0.52.

The photomontage is of a worker from South Africa; collated from http://www.antweb.org/specimen.do?name=casent0249010.
Note: This worker appears to match the original description, TL 3.0 mm, including the sparse erect pilosity on the "corps", probably the alitrunk. The type worker above has dimensions that suggest the Forel TL was wrong. The propodeal spines are shorter, the alitrunk dorsum is totally smooth (the type has distinct longitudinal striae) and the postpetiole is narrower in dorsal view.
