Strongylognathus huberi Forel, 1874

Christoph Germann, 2017, On the Auguste Forel ant collection in the Naturmuseum Solothurn, Switzerland: current state and illustrated type catalogue (Hymenoptera, Formicidae), Revue suisse de Zoologie 124 (2), pp. 241-254 : 249

Strongylognathus huberi Forel, 1874

( Figs 1A , 4A ) 2 syntypes (☿): “ S. huberi ☿ Fully ” [Switzerland, canton Valais]; 1 ♀ “ Str huberi ♀ Type Fully 28.VIII”. Forel (1874) mentioned that both males and females, were unknown to him when describing S. huberi . Therefore, the single female – although marked with the word “Type” – obviously does not belong to the syntype series. The label of the workers fits perfectly with further syntype specimens shown on AntWeb (2016).
