Description

Paratrechina sindbadi Pisarski, 1960

Paratrechina sindbadi Pisarski, 1960: 349, Figs 1–3, 11–13 (original description).

Four syntypes are deposited in NMPC (all dry-mounted, glued on point card labels):

SYNTYPE (1 a ♀): ‘ Baghdad Iraq / Dr. Kálalová [p] // Paratrechina / sindbadi / n. sp. / B. Pisarski [hw] // Allotypus [hw, red label] // Mus. Nat. Pragae / Inv. [p] 3312 [hw] // Syntypus / (Bezděčková et al. 2017) [p, red label]’.

SYNTYPE (1 ♁): ‘ Baghdad Iraq / Dr. Kálalová [p] // prep. 242 [hw] // Paratrechina / sindbadi / n. sp. / B. Pisarski [hw] // Paratypus [hw, red label] // Mus. Nat. Pragae / Inv. [p] 3313 [hw] // Syntypus / (Bezděčková et al. 2017) [p, red label]’.

SYNTYPE (1 ♁): ‘ Baghdad Iraq / Dr. Kálalová [p] // Paratrechina / sindbadi / n. sp. / B. Pisarski [hw] // Paratypus [hw, red label] // Mus. Nat. Pragae / Inv. [p] 3314 [hw] // Syntypus / (Bezděčková et al. 2017) [p, red label]’.

SYNTYPE (1 ♁): ‘ Baghdad Iraq / Dr. Kálalová [p] // Paratrechina / sindbadi / n. sp. / det. B. Pisarski [hw] // Paratypus [hw, red label] // Mus. Nat. Pragae / Inv. [p] 3315 [hw] // Syntypus / (Bezděčková et al. 2017) [p, red label]’.

Current status. Valid as Nylanderia sindbadi (Pisarski, 1960) (see BOLTON 2016).

Remarks. In the original description, PISARSKI (1960) listed five males and one female from ‘ Bagdad (Irak), leg. Dr. Kálalová’ as the type series and specified that three males and the female of this series were deposited in NMPC, and two males at the Museum and Institute of Zoology of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw, Poland. As he did not designate any holotype in his paper, we consider all these specimens syntypes (cf. ICZN 1999: Art. 73.1.3. and 73.2.).
