  • Overview and Current Status of Non-Native Termites (Isoptera) in Florida§
    Scheffrahn: Non-Native Termites in Florida 781 OVERVIEW AND CURRENT STATUS OF NON-NATIVE TERMITES (ISOPTERA) IN FLORIDA§ Rudolf H. Scheffrahn University of Florida, Fort Lauderdale Research & Education Center, 3205 College Avenue, Davie, Florida 33314, U.S.A E-mail; [email protected] §Summarized from a presentation and discussions at the “Native or Invasive - Florida Harbors Everyone” Symposium at the Annual Meeting of the Florida Entomological Society, 24 July 2012, Jupiter, Florida. ABSTRACT The origins and status of the non-endemic termite species established in Florida are re- viewed including Cryptotermes brevis and Incisitermes minor (Kalotermitidae), Coptotermes formosanus, Co. gestroi, and Heterotermes sp. (Rhinotermitidae), and Nasutitermes corniger (Termitidae). A lone colony of Marginitermes hubbardi (Kalotermitidae) collected near Tam- pa was destroyed in 2002. A mature colony of an arboreal exotic, Nasutitermes acajutlae, was destroyed aboard a dry docked sailboat in Fort Pierce in 2012. Records used in this study were obtained entirely from voucher specimen data maintained in the University of Flori- da Termite Collection. Current distribution maps of each species in Florida are presented. Invasion history suggests that established populations of exotic termites, without human intervention, will continue to spread and flourish unabatedly in Florida within climatically suitable regions. Key Words: Isoptera, Kalotermitidae, Rhinotermitidae, Termitidae, non-endemic RESUMEN Se revisa el origen y el estatus de las especies de termitas no endémicas establecidas en la Florida incluyendo Cryptotermes brevis y Incisitermes menor (Familia Kalotermitidae); Coptotermes formosanus, Co. gestroi y Heterotermes sp. (Familia Rhinotermitidae) y Nasu- titermes corniger (Familia Termitidae). Una colonia individual de Marginitermes hubbardi revisada cerca de Tampa fue destruida en 2002.

ZooKeys 787: 91–105. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.787.28195 Abstract Termites have developed a wide array of defensive mechanisms. One of them is the mandibulate soldier caste that crushes or pierces their enemies. However, in several lineages of Termitinae, soldiers have long and slender mandibles that cannot bite but, instead, snap and deliver powerful strikes to their opponents.

    \4/iwrwan Mueum PUBLISHED BY THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CENTRAL PARK WEST AT 79TH STREET, NEW YORK, N. Y. 10024 NUMBER 2 359 FEBRUARY I 7, I 969 A Revision of the Tertiary Fossil Species of the Kalotermitidae (Isoptera) BY ALFRED E. EMERSON1 INTRODUCTION The present article belongs in a series that attempts to redescribe named species, to describe new species, and to classify those species of fossil Tertiary termites that have been available for firsthand study. Preceding the present article, one (Emerson, 1965) dealt with the Mastotermitidae, one (Emerson, 1968a) described a new genus of the Hodotermitidae from Cretaceous rocks of Labrador, and one (Emerson, 1968b) dealt with the genus Ulmeriella of the Hodotermitidae. Weidner (1967) also revised Ulmeriella and described a new species from the Pliocene of Germany. Earlier (Emerson, 1933), the fossil species of the subfamily Termopsinae, family Hodotermitidae, were revised. All known termite fossils are found in Cretaceous and Tertiary deposits with the exception of some that are found in Pleistocene copal from tropical Africa and the New World, which have not been studied by the author. Of the nine genera and 16 named species of Tertiary Kalotermitidae, including those described herein, the author has examined specimens of 12 species. The remaining four are mentioned for bibliographical com- pleteness. Type specimens have been studied when available, and lectotypes or neotypes have been selected if the holotypes were not 1 Research Associate, Department of Entomology, the American Museum of Natural History, and Professor Emeritus of Biology, the University of Chicago. 2 AMERICAN MUSEUM NOVITATES NO.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Pagg(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black marl<, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal section~; with a small overlap. If necessai":', .sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and concinuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual cont~nt is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Drywood Termites Dawn H
    ARIZONA COOPERATIVE E TENSION AZ1232 Revised 05/09 Drywood Termites Dawn H. Gouge, Carl Olson, Paul Baker Bugs @ home In nature, termites function as decomposers that breakdown dead wood that accumulates in and on the soil. The beneficial products of this breakdown process are returned to the soil as humus. Drywood termites are found in the southern tier of states, from North Carolina through the Gulf Coast and into the coastal areas of California. Drywood termite swarmer General Biology Drywood termites are social insects that live in colonies in sound, dry wood. Each colony consists of offspring from an original pair (male and female). There are three growth stages – eggs, immatures and adults. Drywood termites are larger than local, southwestern subterranean species of termites. In comparison to other termites, drywood colonies are rather small (a few thousand individuals), and the colony develops slowly. They neither live in the ground nor maintain contact with the soil, and they do not build mud Drywood termite soldier and immature tubes. Drywood termites produce dry fecal pellets compared to subterranean termites that produce liquid feces. These pellets are eliminated from the galleries through “kick holes”. Pellets tend to accumulate on surfaces located below the kick holes and are usually the first evidence of a drywood termite population. Drywood termites tend to feed across wood grain impacting both the soft spring wood and the harder summer growth. Subterranean termites typically follow the grain of the wood, feeding primarily on the soft spring wood. The primary reproductive caste is winged (termed alates or swarmers) but secondary reproductives , wingless males 1970 G N and female, may also occur in the nest, ready to replace the UTTI N primaries if they die.
