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.
