This is an uncommon Central European species which has occurred in North Germany and Poland and also Belgium and the Netherlands. The worker is like that of L. bicornis HNS , but has the dorsum of the gaster as well as alitrunk crowded with long hairs and the scale with a more angular emargination. Queens and males have similar differences and are much larger than L. bicornis HNS .
