X-ray tomographic analysis of the initial structure of the royal chamber and the nest-founding behavior of the drywood termite Incisitermes minor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The nesting biology of the drywood termite, Incisitermes minor, is poorly understood. To date, no published data are available regarding the in situ nest-gallery development of I. minor.

Inclusion of rare taxa from Blattidae and Anaplectidae improves phylogenetic resolution in the cockroach superfamily Blattoidea

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 23-39, January 2023., 2023
1. Phylogeny reconstruction based on mitochondrial genomes provided a number of insights into the evolutionary history of Blattoidea. 2. A new subfamily and two synonyms were proposed in Blattidae: Hebardininae subfam. nov., Archiblattinae Kirby syn. nov. and Shelfordella Adelung syn. nov. 3.

Diet composition of an escaped captive‐born southern tamandua (Tamandua tetradactyla) in a nonnative habitat in Asia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022
Captive‐born lesser anteater can survive in nonnative habitat by expanding their food acceptance. The escaped lesser anteater fed on both sympatric and nonsympatric ant and termite taxa in Taiwan and survived for 3 months. Abstract Studies on the role of natural predatory instincts in captive‐born mammalian myrmecophagy are rare.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Neotermes koshunensis (Shiraki, 1909) (Blattodea: Termitoidae: Kalotermitidae) and its phylogenetic implications

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
In this article, we describe the complete mitochondrial genome of Neotermes koshunensis from the Pingtung County, Taiwan. This mitogenome is 15,589 bp long, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rDNA genes.

Quantitative Changes in Hydrocarbons over Time in Fecal Pellets of Incisitermes minor May Predict Whether Colonies Are Alive or Dead [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Hydrocarbon mixtures extracted from fecal pellets of drywood termites are species-specific and can be characterized to identify the termites responsible for damage, even when termites are no longer present or are unable to be recovered easily.

Drywood termites in Dominican amber (Isoptera: Kalotermitidae).

open access: yesBeiträge zur Entomologie = Contributions to Entomology, 2007
Die bisher bekannte Trockenholztermiten-Fauna (Isoptera: Kalotermitidae) aus dem Dominikanischen Bernstein des Frühen Miozän (Burdigalian) wird revidiert. Dem früher beschriebenem Cryptotermes yamini Krishna & Bacchus werden vier Arten hinzugefügt: Incisitermes peritus sp. n., Glyptotermes paleoliberatus sp. n., G. grimaldii sp. n. und Cryptotermes
