Foraging populations of Coptotermes gestroi (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) in an urban area

Three field colonies of the Thai subterranean termite Coptotermes gestroi Wasmann in an urban area of Bangkok, Thailand, were selected to estimate the foraging populations, using the triple mark-recapture procedure. The foraging populations ranged from 1.13 to 2.75 x 10(6) per colony. Intraspecific...

Zusammenfassung:	Three field colonies of the Thai subterranean termite Coptotermes gestroi Wasmann in an urban area of Bangkok, Thailand, were selected to estimate the foraging populations, using the triple mark-recapture procedure. The foraging populations ranged from 1.13 to 2.75 x 10(6) per colony. Intraspecific variation in foraging populations among the colonies might be caused by the age of colonies, environmental conditions, and seasons
