Tried to key it out and came up with Tetramorium for the genus. Any opinion on that?

Thank you for your post. I wa
Thank you for your post. I was wondering if there is a paper out yet on describing species E? And if yes is there a key to species available?

still waiting...
The revision formally describing and naming this species is not published. Indeed, I do not know if it is even being written yet. Must check on this.
