Caste‐Associated Social Context Modulates Behavioural Interactions With Insecticide‐Exposed Individuals in Nasutitermes corniger (Termitidae: Nasutitermitinae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Termites are eusocial insects that maintain cohesion and exchange information through frequent physical interactions among nestmates. This social organisation underlies the principle of horizontal insecticide transfer, which is widely exploited as a termite control strategy.

Genome Sequences of Microviruses Associated with Coptotermes formosanus

Microbiology Resource Announcements, 2019
Termites have a unique ability to effectively digest lignocellulose with the help of mutualistic symbionts. While gut bacteria and protozoa have been relatively well characterized in termites, the virome remains largely unexplored.

Toxicity and repellency of chlorpyrifos nanocapsules against subterranean termite Coptotermes curvignathus

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología
Chlorpyrifos is widely used in agricultural and building industries to control many insects including termites. However, its low aqueous solubility and tendency to decompose under sunlight results in decrease in its efficiency.

Revision of the termite family Rhinotermitidae (Isoptera) in New Guinea

ZooKeys, 2011
Recently, we completed a revision of the Termitidae from New Guinea and neighboring islands, recording a total of 45 species. Here, we revise a second family, the Rhinotermitidae, to progress towards a full picture of the termite diversity in New Guinea.

Comparative Patterns of Cuticular Hydrocarbon Diversity in Termites Across Castes and Nesting Life Types

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Cuticular 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.

DNA barcoding for identification of species involved in wildlife strikes at Brazilian airports

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
A collaborative network of 42 Brazilian airports applied DNA barcoding to identify 80 species involved in wildlife strikes. Among them, 32 species (17 birds and 15 bats) were not currently available in Brazil's wildlife strike reporting database, underscoring the value of molecular tools for strengthening wildlife strike monitoring.

Balancing risk and opportunity: Nasute termite responses to predator and competitor chemical cues

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 654-663, August 2026.
Nasutitermes corniger discriminates between heterospecific chemical cues during foraging, showing non‐random resource selection based on predator and competitor information. Predator chemical cues consistently reduce food resource selection, indicating avoidance driven by perceived predation risk rather than direct encounters.
