A taxonomic review of the Rhinotermitidae (Isoptera) of Thailand [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Natural History, 2012
Ninety series of rhinotermitid termites were collected from 19 localities distributed across much of Thailand, and compared with specimens deposited in the NHML. Eleven species belonging to five genera of Rhinotermitidae are recorded from Thailand.

Molecular phylogeny of the Rhinotermitidae

Insectes Sociaux, 2004
Relationships among genera in the termite family Rhinotermitidae and their relationship to the families Termitidae and Serritermitidae were investigated based on analysis of three mitochondrial genes: COI, COII and 16S rDNA. Maximum Parsimony (MP) bootstrap analysis of each of these genes indicated a low level of phylogenetic incongruence between them,

Chemical alarm in the termite Termitogeton planus (Rhinotermitidae)

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2014
Effective defense is a common characteristic of insect societies. Indeed, the occurrence of specialized defenders, soldiers, has been the first step toward eusociality in several independent lineages, including termites. Among the multitude of defensive strategies used by termite soldiers, defense by chemicals plays a crucial role.

Agonistic Behavior of the Termite Prorhinotermes canalifrons (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae)

Journal of Insect Behavior, 2008
While intercolonial and interspecific agonism has been broadly documented in termites, detailed studies of individual behavior and its differentiation among castes are scarce. We studied the responses of non-reproductive castes of Prorhinotermes canalifrons (pseudergates, presoldiers, soldiers of different age and artificial intercastes) to conspecific

Dispersal Flights of the Formosan Subterranean Termite (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae)

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2015
The Formosan subterranean termite, Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki, is a pest of major economic concern. This termite is particularly known for its tendency to establish populations in nonendemic areas via maritime vessels as well as human-aided transport of infested materials. The natural spread of this species after new introductions occurs in part by
