Liometopum specimens needed

     I am currently working with Dr. William P. Mackay at the University of Texas at El Paso. We are putting together a taxonomic revision of the ant genus Liometopum. We have some material from the U.S but any contributions would be very much appreciated. We are especially searching for material from Southern Mexico, Eastern Europe, India and China. ( L. microcephalum, L. orientale, L. sinense, L. sinsense var. sericatum) Your help would be very much appreciated. If there is anything our institution can do for your research please let us know and we would be more than glad to help out. Thank You.
