Termite Vibration Sensing: The Chordotonal Organs and Their Appendages
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.This study investigates how termites use their legs and antennae as vibration‐sensitive sensory organs, comparing them to ants, their eusocial predators. Termite appendages are morphologically adapted to detect lower‐frequency, wood‐borne vibrations, enhancing their foraging and predator avoidance abilities. These findings suggest that termite legs may

Lipid Components of Coptotermes formosanus (a Sort of Termites)
Journal of Japan Oil Chemists' Society, 1986 The fatty components of each caste of Coptotermes formosanus (worker, soldier, alate and larva of alate) were studied for determination of fatty and sterol composition. The major fatty acid components of all samples were 18 : 1, 16 : 0 and 18 : 0. But, 22.0 and 24 : 0 as fatty acids were detected in the fatty components of soldier. 17 : 0 and 17 : 1 as
