A new interpretation of the defense glands of neotropical Ruptitermes (Isoptera, Termitidae, Apicotermitinae)
(2004-10-06)
Suicidal altruism has been reported for some species of eusocial insects, in which the individual dies in defense of the society. The termites of the genus Ruptitermes are known for the suicidal behavior of the workers ...
Relationship between Constrictotermes cyphergaster and Inquiline Termites in the Cerrado (Isoptera: Termitidae)
(2003-12-08)
Constrictotermes cyphergaster builds arboreal nests in Cerrado sensu stricto of Brazil; inquiline termites and termitophiles frequently inhabit their nests. Measurements of the nests and the support trees (nest width and ...

Expression profiles of neotropical termites reveal microbiota-associated, caste-biased genes and biotechnological targets
(2021-04-01)
Termites are well recognized by their complex development trajectories, involving dynamic differentiation process between non-reproductive castes, workers and soldiers. These insects are associated with endosymbiotic ...
Structure of the spermatheca in five families of isoptera
(2005-06-01)
The structure of the spermatheca was investigated in specimens of five termite families with the aid of light microscopy. In longitudinal section, the spermatheca of Zootermopsis nevadensis (Termopsidae) showed the shape ...

Social polymorphism and gut desing in “higher termites” : a case study in neotropical termitinae
(Nova Science Publishers, 2015)
The main structure and detailed characteristics of the digestive tube of termites are known for many genera from the Neotropical and other biogeographical regions, due to its functional, taxonomic and phylogenetic relevance. ...
