Original description:
Ammotrechula boneti Mello-Leitão, 1942: 312-313:

Muma (1970a: 52) reported that:the type has not been located. He further stated: "The present placement presumes the validity and usability of leg tarsal and setal counts (see discussion under Ammotrechona cubae [Lucas])." [NOTE: Ammotrechona Roewer 1934 is currently recognized as a junior synoym of Ammotrechella Roewer 1934.] Muma (1976: 27; 1986: 21) and Brookhart and Brookhart (2006: 324) made limited reference to this species, which apparently is known from only from the missing type..
