pronotum with 2 pairs of hairs (Technomyrmex)

Primary tabs

The pronotum with one pair of erect hairs that differ from the appressed pilosity. Used in Antkey to separate Technomyrmex albipes and some specimens of Technomyrmex pallipes from Technomyrmex vitiensis and Technomyrmex difficilis. Technomyrmex pallipes can have 1-3 pairs of erect hairs on the pronotum. This character should be used with some caution because these hairs can be easily rubbed off prior to examination.
