rhinotermitidae การใช้

• Termites from the Rhinotermitidae family are avoided due to their chemical defences.
• It is produced by termite soldiers of " Prorhinotermes " genus ( Isoptera, Rhinotermitidae ) as a defensive chemical.
• For example, in one group of termites, there is a three-way symbiotic relationship : termites of the family Rhinotermitidae, cellulolytic protists of the genus " Pseudotrichonympha " in the guts of these termites, and intracellular bacterial symbionts of the protists.
• However, " Stolotermes " is somewhat aberrant and its placement in the Termopsidae is in need of scrutiny; current understanding suggests it might be better considered much closer to the most advanced termites, such as Rhinotermitidae and Termitidae; perhaps it would better be placed with these, perhaps it even deserves to be treated as a family on its own like " Serritermes ".
