Material examined. Bukit Timah Nature Reserve , 25 May 1967, D.H. Murphy leg., ZRC _ HYM_0000250; Mandai Road , 5 Dec 2016, G.W.J. Yong leg., ZRC _ HYM_0001005; Dairy Farm , 22 Jun 2012, Zestin Soh leg., ZRC _ ENT00028676 View Materials .

Material not physically examined. Unknown.

Literature. None. New record.

Localities. Bukit Timah Nature Reserve; Dairy Farm; Mandai Road.

Habitat/Ecology. Found in primary or mature secondary forests in Singapore, including native-dominated secondary forest. Nests were found in fallen rotting wood and leaf litter.

Remarks. Some examined ZRC material were originally identified as ‘ Gnamptogenys costata ( Emery, 1889) ’, but that was considered a junior synonym of ‘ G. coxalis’ ( Lattke & Delsinne 2016). Genus initially determined as Gnamptogenys , but present species combination revived in Camacho et al. (2022) based on phylogenetic evidence.
