Biogeographical Variation in Termite Distributions Alters Global Deadwood Decay

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 33, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Aim Termites are a crucial group of macroinvertebrates regulating rates of deadwood decomposition across tropical and subtropical regions. When examining global patterns of deadwood decay, termites are treated as a homogenous group. There exist key biogeographical differences in termite distribution.

The role of changing landscape in the dispersal of a soil‐feeding termite in Suriname and French Guiana

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 953-967, November 2024.
We investigated Embiratermes neotenicus dispersal in Suriname and French Guiana, by studying genetic diversity, structure and factors influencing population differentiation. We used mitochondrial and nuclear data from 70 colonies. Significant genetic differentiation between populations was observed.

Evolution of obligate asexuality in termites with mixed‐sex societies

Population Ecology, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 219-231, October 2024.
The evolution of obligate asexuality is thought to be prevented in animals whose males play crucial roles beyond the contribution of gametes. While obligate asexuality had not until recently been observed in termites whose colonies commonly comprise both male and female reproductives, workers, and soldiers, all‐female asexual populations of the termite
