Xenylla baconae Folsom, 1916
Figs. 55-60
I have examined specimens labelled cotypes in USNM and in MCZ. The drawings here are from USNM specimen No. 19903.
Notes: Fig. 55, Folsom's drawing of the SO Ant III (Fig. 143 in his 1916 paper) shows one of the large sense rods as a seta. The apex of Ant IV (Fig. 56) has an exsertile sensory knob and sensory rods as shown; tenaculum (Fig. 59) with three barbs; each anal spine with an associated anterior-lateral seta (Fig. 60): the claws with one long simple ventral seta, though Folsom mentions two; and the dental hooks (Fig. 58) which are very well developed. I could not detect the central incision shown by Folsom in the mucro of this species.
