Investigated were three specimens on the same pin from NHM Basel, labeled ‘ Camponotus spissinodis Fo / v. dusmeti Sants’, ‘Viladrau (G.) 13. VIII. 28’ ‘Type’; ‘ANTWEB CASENT 0911703’, ‘ANTWEB 0911703’. Two of these specimens, a major worker (CASENT0911702) and a minor worker (CASENT0911703), were investigated by NUMOBAT. They were allocated with p = 0.9958 (minor) and p = 0.9990 (major) to the C. piceus cluster if run as wild-card in a 5-class LDA considering the five black species of the group shown in Tab. 3 and using all available characters.
