Bothriomyrmex syrius turcomenicus Emery, 1925b: 11 , Fig. A 4, w.
Current status: Bothriomyrmex turcomenicus View in CoL . Raised to species: Dlussky et al. 1990: 171.
Type locality(-ies): “ Turcoménie: Merw , Bagir (N. Kusnezov leg.)”.
Original Karawajew labels: 3 w, “Асхабад, / Багиръ / 27.IV.1923 / Н. КуЗнецов” [Ashkhabad, Bagir N. Kusnezov], “188. Coll. / Karavaievi”, “ Bothriomyrmex / syrius v. turke- / stanica Em. / in. litt. typus”, “ Syntypus Bothriomyr- / mex syrius var. / turkestanica Em.”, “ Bothriomyrmex turkestanicus / Em. (non typus) / Dubovikoff det.”.
Material: SYNTYPES, 3 w (Box 28).
Notes. Emery (1925b) described B. syrius turcomenicus based on one worker and one ergatogyne collected by N. Kuznezov in Turkmenistan (Merv—now Mary; Bagir—now territory of Ashkhabad). However, in Karawajew’s collection we found three more workers with the labels “Асхабад, / Багиръ / 27.IV.1923 / Н. КуЗнецов” [Ashkhabad, Bagir N. Kusnezov] and “ Bothriomyrmex / syrius v. turke- / stanica Em. / in. litt. typus ”. They almost certainly belong to the nest one of the two series of B. turcomenicus and based on Recommendation 72B of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1999), we conclude these specimens are part of the type series.
