Remarks. Type locality in Singapore. At the time of writing, this subspecies is known only from Singapore. While we lack more recent physical material for objective comparisons, based on images on AntWeb, we observed the following differences between the types of C. egidyi szaboi and C. egidyi (in parentheses):
1) head in full face view wider than long (head in full face view either as long as wide or slightly longer than wide), 2) antennal scape mostly with dense appressed or decumbent short hairs (scape with numerous erect or suberect short hairs). Considering that these apparent differences may be symptomatic of variable imaging perspectives or conditions, we refrain from making any definite taxonomic conclusions in this paper based on our limited observations, i.e., maintain the subspecies szaboi.
