Paraparatrechina koningsbergeri

Paratrechina (Nylanderia) koningsbergeri Karawajew, 1933b: 108, w, m. Current status: Paraparatrechina koningsbergeri. Combination: LaPolla et al. 2010: 128. Type locality(-ies): “ Tjibodas, Java (Nr. 5355), zahlreiche ww und einige mm”. Original Karawajew labels: 3 w, “ Tjibodas, Java. / Karavaiev”, “3869. Coll. / Karavaievi ”, “ Paratrechina / (Paratrechina) / koningsbergeri / Karav. typus”, “ Syntypus / Paratrechina konings- / bergeri Karaw.”; 3 w, “3869. Coll. Karavaievi ”, “ Syntypus / Paratrechina konings- / bergeri Karaw.”; 21 w, “3869. Coll. / Karavaievi”, “Syntypus / Paratrechina konings- / bergeri Karaw.”; 28 w (in vial), “3869. Coll. / Karavaievi ”, “Syntypus / Paratrechina konings- / bergeri Karaw.”; 1 w, “ Tjibodas, Java. / Karavaiev”, “5355. Coll. / Karavaievi”, “ Paratrechina / (Paratrechina) / koningsbergeri Kar. / Karavajev det.”, “ Syntypus / Paratrechina konings- / bergeri Karaw.”; 5 m, “5355. Coll. / Karavaievi”, “ Syntypus / Paratrechina konings- / bergeri Karaw.”. Material: SYNTYPES, 58 w (CASENT0917304), 5 m (CASENT0917305) (Box 40). Note. Karawajew (1933b) gave the collection number for this species as 5355, but the collection contains 53 workers numbered 3869, collected in the type locality and bearing Karawajew’s original label “ Paratrechina / (Paratrechina) / koningsbergeri / Karav. typus ”. He probably forgot to add this material to the article, and since they undoubtedly are conspecific with worker number 5355, we beleve that they also belong to the type series of this species. Based on Recommendation 72B of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1999), we conclude these specimens are part of the type series.
