Material Needed

Tatuidris wanted.
 


With Juan Vieira, we are carrying out a taxonomic revision of the rare Neotropical genus Tatuidris. For this reason we would appreciate it a lot to review any specimen or information of this extraordinary genus you can share with us. Up to know we are including specimens from Costa Rica, Brazil, Panama, Ecuador and México. In an initial survey, we can recognize at least five morphospecies but tatusia and there is evidence for distributing the workers in major and minor castes.
