Secondary loss of the abdominal appendage results in a loss of sexual dimorphism. Nest size across segments remains significantly different but no consistent pattern exists between species. This group includes three independent losses with A. indica, Dicranosepsis sp., S. latiforceps, and S. punctum representing L1, A. armata representing L2, and M. alberquerquei representing L3. Refer to Table 3 for the number of individuals sampled for each species
