Termites (Isoptera: Kalotermitidae, Rhinotermitidae, Termitidae) of Ecuador

Annales de la Société entomologique de France (N.S.), 2009
Abstract Termites are an abundant and diverse group in the Neotropics with about 500 species representing 83 genera. The paucity of the termite fauna recorded from Ecuador is due, in part, to a lack of deliberate surveys. We revise the termite fauna of Ecuador and raise the number of species from 25 species to 72 based on our recent termite surveys. Of

Drywood Termites (Kalotermitidae)

2020
The term drywood termites was introduced for those species nesting and feeding in wood with low or no moisture. The term is used as a synonym for the family Kalotermitidae, although not all kalotermitids exhibit the same substrate prefer- ence. There are, in fact, many species living in rotten or damp wood logs (such as Neotermes).
