We also suggest that this probably occurred at either the individual or colony level in this species. Termitidae: pictures (4) Family Termopsidae rottenwood termites.

We suggest that heterochronic evolutionary change accounts for the compression of nymphal development into a single instar. Family Kalotermitidae dampwood termites, drywood termites. Family Archotermopsidae (Rottenwood Termites) Genus Zootermopsis (Dampwood termites) Species angusticollis (Pacific Dampwood Termite) Range sw. Our observations revealed that the tips of the folded wings were elongated and bent, such that they overlapped in the median plane. sjostedti are formed inside the relatively smaller wing buds and therefore must be folded in a complicated manner.

We examined their histology and internal morphology and observed that the folding pattern of the newly formed wings was very different from that seen in second stage nymphs of the closely related species Zootermopsis nevadensis. The Dampwood Termite-sometimes called the rotten wood termite-is associated with high moisture content and wood decay.
Those nymphal individuals subsequently moulted into alates through only a single moult. During the annual alate production season in June/July, we observed some nymphs with small wing buds which were dorsally swollen. There is only a single nymphal instar between the pseudergate and alate stages. As their name suggests, drywood termites infest dry wood, and their damage has a smooth, sculpted appearance. Here, we report that of the rotten-wood termite Hodotermopsis sjostedti. Scientific name: Porotermes Adamsoni Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Arthropoda Class: Insecta Order: Isoptera Family: Termopsidae Characteristics The dampwood termite is giant in comparison to the dry wood termite and the subterranean termite but naturally form smaller colonies maybe they believe there is strength in small numbers. In termopsid termites (family Termopsidae), alates are normally differentiated from apterous instars by two nymphal instar stages and three moulting events. Termite colonies are comprised of several types of castes that differentiate throughout postembryonic development.
