A revision of the Indomalayan termite genus Homallotermes (Isoptera, Termitidae, Termitinae). American Museum novitates ; no. 2489

Abstract

"Two new species, Homallotermes eleanorae Emerson and H. exiguus Krishna, and the hitherto unknown imago caste of H. pilosus (Mathur and Thapa) are described and illustrated. The previously known species, H. foraminifer (Haviland) and H. pilosus (Mathur and Thapa), are redescribed and illustrated. Homallotermes penangi (Holmgren) is treated as a synonym of H. foraminifer. The species H. huananensis Yu and Ping is removed from the genus Homallotermes and placed in the genus Procapritermes. A key to the imagoes and soldiers and a map showing the distribution of each species are included"--P. [1].
