Abstract

"Saldolepta kistnerorum, new species, is described from the nest of Nasutitermes dendrophilus from the western lowlands of Ecuador. It is considered the sister group of Leptosalda chiapensis from Tertiary Chiapas amber, and as such is the first recent member of the Leptosaldinae. It is the first known apparent inquiline in the Leptopodomorpha"--P. [1].
