A New Synonymy of Coptotermes formosanus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) [PDF]
Sociobiology, 2014 The taxonomy of the genus Coptotermes is far from settled in the world, especially in China. Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki had been described or misidentified as several different species in China based on measurement characteristics. In this paper, the

Comparative Patterns of Cuticular Hydrocarbon Diversity in Termites Across Castes and Nesting Life Types. [PDF]
Ecol EvolCuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) profiles in termites show strong ecological structuring across life type, climate, and caste, based on a comparative analysis of published datasets. Despite this ecological signal, phylogenetic patterns are weak, indicating high evolutionary lability relative to other social insects.

Rethinking Termite Methane Emissions: Does the Mound Environment Matter? [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolMany factors can influence the amount of methane (CH4) that is released from a termite mound. In this study, we tested how the external and internal environment of a termite mound impacts CH4 emission using field measurements of mounds in a Northern Australia savanna.

Nitrogen content of the exuviae of Coptotermes gestroi (Wasmann) (Blattodea: Rhinotermitidae)
Heliyon, 2021 Subterranean termites are hemimetabolous social insects where most of the individuals in a colony molt on a regular basis until they die. Nitrogen is a limiting growth factor in wood-feeding insects, such as termites.

Interspecific Competition and Territory Defense Mechanisms ofCoptotermes formosanusandCoptotermes gestroi(Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) [PDF]
Environmental Entomology, 2010 Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki and C. gestroi (Wasmann) are the most widely distributed species of the genus and occur sympatrically in the subtropics. Results of two bioassays in the current study showed that C. gestroi was more aggressive than C. formosanus. In the petri-dish bioassays, C.
