Material examined. Bukit Timah Nature Reserve , 1.35284, 103.77995, 11 Jan 2017, W. Wang leg., WW-SG17-008, ZRC _HYM_0000579; GoogleMaps Mandai Road, 1.41258, 103.79839, 21 Dec 2016, G.W. Yong leg., M1D20GH2080, ZRC _ HYM_0001531 GoogleMaps .

Material not physically examined. Unknown.

Literature. None. New record.

Localities. Bukit Timah Nature Reserve; Mandai Road.

Habitat/Ecology. This subspecies was found in old or mature native-dominated secondary forest in Singapore. A colony was found in soil near rotting wood.

Remarks. Specimens available at the time of writing could not be definitely and confidently identified to species based on morphology, in the absence of type images or material for comparison. For the purposes of this checklist, we tentatively treat these specimens as Pheidole nodgii verlatenensis sensu lato, with the caveat that this record may change in future if more information or material becomes available for a more accurate species diagnosis.
