7. F. congerens HNS .
Operaria: rufo-ferruginea levissime cinereo-micans, pilis parvis erectis albidis conspersa, fronte cum occipite et abdomine castaneo-atris; palpis, antennis et thoracis dorso antice clypeique medio fuscescentibus; squama subtriangulariter rotundata supra vel integra vel leviter emarginata.
In insula Mjoeloen nidum habitantem acervo accumulato ad instar F. rufae superstructum inveni. Astrocissime se defendit. Nec marem, nec feminam novi.
[[ worker ]]. Long. 3 lin. Simillima sequenti et forte mera ejusdem varietas, quod detectio feminae decideret, sed corpore robustiori, pilositate forte minus densa, oculis fere omnino nudis, colore fusco diffusiore et denique habitationis modo diverso. Similis quoqne F, rufae, at pilositate statim discernenda. Clypeus ut in sequente tormatus disco interdum fuscescente. Pedes loti fuscescentes pilis albidis adspersi; coxae anticae rufae macula anteriori fuscescente. Abdomen purius atrum quam in sequente, basi et ano summo obsoletissime vel omnino non rufescentibus, segmentorum marginibus summis obsolete pallescentibus.
