First record of Ereymatermes rotundiceps (Termitidae: Nasutitermitinae) as inquiline of Embiratermes neotenicus (Termitidae: Syntermitinae) in the Colombian Amazon

Acta Amazonica, 2022
We report, for the first time, the presence of the termite Ereymatermes rotundiceps Constantino, 1991 as an inquiline of the termite Embiratermes neotenicus (Holmgren, 1906) in the Colombian Amazon, and provide new morphometric information on the species.

Phylogeography of Nasutitermes ephratae (Termitidae: Nasutitermitinae) in Neotropical region [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2022
Abstract The neotropical region ranks third in the number of termites with five different families. Of these, Termitidae is the most diverse and includes the species Nasutitermes ephratae and is common in the neotropics. To date, only one study has been published about phylogeographic issues in neotropical termites (N. corniger). Here, we aimed

Single-Cell Transcriptomes and Phylogenomic Analysis of Uncultivated Oxymonads. [PDF]

J Eukaryot Microbiol
ABSTRACT The oxymonads are anaerobic protist symbionts of animals with spectacular morphological complexity and variability, but because only a handful of species have been cultured, very little data are available for the group. This includes molecular data, with only a couple of species having sequenced genomes or transcriptomes. Oxymonads are divided

Reproductive mechanisms in a Nasutitermes species (Isoptera: Termitidae) [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Biologia, 1999
The number of reproductive individuals present in colonies of Nasutitermes sp. was analysed, and its possible reproductive strategy discussed. Twenty-four nests were collected and opened, and a single queen and king were found in 17 of them. In the other 7 nests, no queen or king were neither found, nor any other reproductive individual.

Phylogeography of Nasutitermes corniger (Isoptera: Termitidae) in the Neotropical Region [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2017
The Neotropical Region is known for its biodiversity and ranks third in number of known termite species. However, biogeographic and phylogeographic information of termites of this region is limited compared to other world geographic regions. Nasutitermes corniger is widely distributed in the region and is of considerable economic importance.

Armed reproductives: Evolution of the frontal gland in imagoes of Termitidae

Arthropod Structure & Development, 2013
The frontal gland of termites is a structure without any equivalent among other animals. Although this gland is well known in soldiers, it received almost no attention in other castes. Recently, we described it in imagoes of Rhinotermitidae and Serritermitidae. In order to provide a complete picture of the evolution of this gland in termite imagoes, we
