Scheffrahn & Carrijo is described from workers collected from a single colony in the Northern Range of Trinidad. The shape and texture of the unsclerotized enteric valve, tubular shape of the enteric valve seating, and prominent spherical mesenteric tongue of are the diagnostic characters for both the genus and species. A Bayesian phylogenetic analysis using the COI gene and including all neotropical Apicotermitinae genera described to date supports the new genus as a distinct terminal.
谢夫拉恩氏属（Scheffrahn）和卡里霍氏属（Carrijo）是根据从特立尼达北部山脉一个单一蚁群采集的工蚁描述的。未硬化的肠瓣的形状和质地、肠瓣座的管状形状以及突出的球形肠系膜舌是该属和该物种的诊断特征。使用细胞色素氧化酶亚基I（COI）基因并包括迄今描述的所有新热带地区尖白蚁亚科属进行的贝叶斯系统发育分析支持这个新属作为一个独特的分支。
