First Report of Incisitermes minor (Isoptera: Kalotermitidae) in Louisiana
The Florida Entomologist, 2000 On 9 June 1998, drywood termite alates, soldiers, and pseudergates were collected from inside a dead limb of a living Arizona ash, Fraxinus uelutina Torr., tree inside 31acre Louis Armstrong Park, which is located immediately northwest of the French Quarter in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Machine learning‐assisted vibrational detection and classification of drywood termite infestations
Approaches in Entomology: Methods, Philosophies, and Ethics, Volume 1, Issue 1, August‐December 2026.Vibratory recordings combined with machine learning accurately detected drywood termite infestations within wood using a fully non‐destructive sensing approach. Models successfully classified termite presence and infestation intensity (empty, low, high density), achieving over 80% accuracy in both internal and external validation.

Morphological, Molecular, and Isotopic Approaches to Termite Ecology: A Mangrove Case Study
Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.Termite communities in Caribbean mangroves, though species‐poor, sustain crucial decomposition and nutrient cycling. Their overlapping niches and stochastic assembly highlight termites' resilience and ecological importance in supporting the functioning of these challenging coastal ecosystems.

Virus-Like Symptoms in a Termite (Isoptera: Kalotermitidae) Field Colony
Florida Entomologist, 2013 The concept behind the use of biological control agents against termites was based on the assumption that epizootic events can occur naturally in a termite colony. However, no reports ever mentioned the occurrence of epizootic in natural field conditions in any termite species.

The magnitude of cryptic insect diversity in one tropical rainforest
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1163-1174, November 2025.We detected 214 cryptic species out of a total of 2006 species (10.6%) examined from 22 focal insect taxa in 1500 ha tropical rainforest in Panama. The percentage of cryptic species varied greatly among assemblages (0%–19%), with half of the assemblages devoid of cryptic species and the highest proportions of cryptics in Pieridae and Formicidae ...

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
