Studies on the Caste Differentiation in Termites
Japanese journal of applied entomology and zoology, 1963 ヤマトシロアリの兵蟻と副生殖虫の出現についてみると,王・女王の1対からの人工コロニーにおいて,幼虫と,職蟻が5頭以下出現した人工コロニーの53個のうち4個にだけ兵蟻が現われ,7.4%の出現率であった。幼虫と,職蟻が10頭以上出現したコロニーでは,兵蟻が認められたのは25個のうち20個で80%であった。すなわち幼虫と職蟻の個体数が多くなるほど,兵蟻の出現率は高くなる。副生殖虫についていえば,多くの副女王・副王が職蟻やニンフのグループから発現した。また50∼200頭職蟻区の間において,職蟻の個体数が多いほど,副生殖虫の発現は容易であった。これらの実験の結果から,ヤマトシロアリの階級分化は,コロニーを構成している個体数に,容易に影響されることがわかった.
