Extra Distribution Information
Barrow Island? From Heterick, 2013: "Shortly before the proofs came out, the revision of Polyrhachis (subgenus Hagiomyrma) by Kohout was published. There is some doubt about the identity of ‘melanura’, as the Barrow Island specimens do not quite fit the description in the published key, and occur considerably further south than the material examined by Kohout."
