ProrhinotermesGenus Prorhinotermes Silvestri (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) is very rare in India, known by single species Prorhinotermes flavus. After three decades, a new species Prorhinotermes cotym Joseph, Amina and Mathew sp.nov, is described from the Kerala partof the Western Ghats, India...
( E )-1-Nitropentadec-1-ene (NPE), the main component of the defense secretion of Prorhinotermes simplex soldiers, is toxic to both insecticide-susceptible (S) as well as to insecticide-resistant (R) strains of the house fly, Musca domestica. The LD 50 is 11.7 μg/female fly for th...

The labial glands in Prorhinotermes simplex consist of secretory cells organized into acini, water sacs and the ducts connecting the gland parts to the basis of the labium. Acini are composed of central and parietal cells. Central cells type I contain predominantly lucent vacuoles and are involved...
The winged imago of Prorhinotermes japonicus (Holmgren 1912) is described herein for the first time. The soldier caste and two morphs of the neotenic caste also are redescribed. Based on the similar morphology of soldier, alate and neotenic, two Chinese species, Prorhinotermes xishaensis Li ...

A high propensity for the selfish differentiation of self-sufficient neotenics from little-specialized pseudergates in Prorhinotermes can be understood as an adaptation to very unstable habitats.Roisin, Y.Parmentier, D.Insectes Sociaux: Bulletin de l'Union Internationale pour l'Etude des Insectes ...
