A. Holotype 0: TL 6.1, HL 1.46, HW 1.49, Cl 102, SL 1.56, SI 96, 
PW 0.93, OD 0.34. 
Frontal carinae slightly sinuate, reaching back to midlength of the 
head (Fig. 4a). Anterior clypeal margin almost straight, but in the 
middle third weakly concave. Eyes situated behind the midlength of 
the sides of the head, with maximum diameter of 0.34 mm or about 
0.23 HW. 
Head and alitrunk reddish brown, gaster dark brown, almost 
black. Petiole reddish brown at base, but dark brown in upper half. 
Legs and antennae, like head and alitrunk, reddish brown to top. 
Surface of head, alitrunk and gaster opaque, with very dense punc- 
tures, which appear elongated on the gaster. Cuticular structure 
under SEM regular reticulated on head and irregular reticulated on 
alitrunk; cuticular sculpture of gaster is shown on Fig. 3a. Yellowish 
white, decumbent pubescence less dense than in C. texens workers; 
yellowish white, erect, longer hairs occur mainly on forehead and 
vertex, less dense on alitrunk and gaster. Propodeum in profile 
broadly rounded (Fig. 4c, d) and lower than promesonotal dorsum. 
Dorsal part of propodeum convex, descending part slightly flatter. 
In the lower sixth, the declivity is slightly concave. 
Paratype 00 : TL 5. 6-6.4, HL 1.40-1.62, HW 1.44-1.72, Cl 97-105, 
SL 1.56-1.62, SI 86-104, PW 0.92-1.04, OD 0.34-0.40, or 0.22-0.26 
HW (20 measured). 
Holotype 0 , Western Malaysia: Gombak Valley, ca. 25 km north of 
Kuala Lumpur, 15.2.1984 (Naturhistorisches Museum, Basel). 
Paratypes: 20 00 with same data as holotype (2 in British Museum 
(Natural History), London; 2 in Museum of Comparative Zoology 
at Harvard University; 2 in Malaysia, National Museum of Malay- 
sia, Kuala Lumpur; 12 in collection of the author). 
B. Gynetype ($): TL 11.4, HL 2.18, HW 2.24, Cl 103, SL 2.38, SI 
94.1, PW 1.92, OD 0.54. 
Frontal carinae extend about to midlength of head. Apart from a 
lateral projection behind the scapal insertion, they are almost 
straight and hardly divergent. Width of clypeus subequal to that of 
C. texens. Anterior clypeal margin with semicircular excision (Fig. 
4b). Mandibles strong, distinctly rounded on outside, and with 5 
subequal teeth on inside. Frontal area clearly delimited and more 
shining than neighboring head parts.
