Differs from all known living and fossil gynes of Gesomyrmex by size. Body length of all other specie less than 11 mm." (Dlussky et al, 2015)

  • Hook facts are interesting (prefer hook 2). Hook facts are cited and verified. No close paraphrasing found. More references would be nice, but as this is a species article notability is not a question. No images to check. QPQ is done. Good to go. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 16:38, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
