   Abstract

   Leucopitermes leucops merupakan spesies rayap yang dimasukkan kedalam kelompok soil-feeding nasute atau Subulitermes-group yaitu spesies rayap pemakan material “tanah”. Rayap ini memiliki peran penting dalam proses dekomposisi material organik tanah. Taksonomi rayap Subulitermes-group selama ini masih sulit dipahami dan mengalami sejumlah revisi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kembali rayap Leucopitermes leucops di Stasiun Penelitian Suaq Balimbing, Taman Nasional Gunung Leuser. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode belt-transek. Hasil penelitian berdasarkan deskripsi karakter morfologi Leucoptermes leucops menunjukkan bahwa karakter kapsul kepala pada kasta prajurit dan mandibel pada kasta pekerja menjadi karakter kunci untuk membedakan Leucopitermes leucops dengan spesies dari genus yang sama maupun dengan spesies Subulitermes-group lainnya.Leucopitermes leucops is a termite species of soil feeding-nasute or Subulitermes-groups its classification by "soil" feeders. This termite has an important role in the decomposition process of soil organic matter. Currently, the taxonomy of this group is still difficult to understand and experience a number of revisions. This study aims to re-describe of Leucopitermes leucops in Suaq Balimbing Research Station. The method used was a standardized sampling protocol (belt transect) method. The result was described based on morphological characters of Leucopitermes leucops it is found that the key characters to distinguish Leucopitermes leucops with species in the same genus and other Subulitermes-group species.

   Alan Handru, Henny Herwina, Dahelmi · 2016 · Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies

   Abstract

   This study was aim to investigate the termite species diversity at four nature reserves (Pangean II, Air Putih, Tarusan and Maninjau Utara-Selatan) around Bukit Barisan Mountains in West Sumatra Province by using direct sampling methods along 200 m of interior and edge of forest in each nature reserves. A total of 13 species of termites that belonging to two families, six subfamilies, 10 genera and 1028 individuals was collected. Nasutitermitinae was the highest in number of species (seven species), followed by Macrotermitinae (two species), meanwhile Amitermitinae, Coptotermitinae, Rhinotermitinae, and Termitinae were found only one species respectively. Nasutitermes was the genus with the highest in number of species (three species), followed by Macrotermes (two species) meanwhile Bulbitermes, Coptotermes, Dicuspiditermes, Globitermes, Hospitalitermes, Leucopitermes, Longipeditermes and Schedorhinotermes were found only one species, respectively. Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index for all samples collected was 2.13.

   Abstract

   This paper describes Leucopitermes thoi sp. nov. (found in Sumatra, Borneo and Peninsular Malaysia). It also synonomises 21 species and three genera. Schedorhiotermes sarawakensis becomes the junior synonym of S. malaccensis, S. javanicus and tarakanensis are junior synonyms of S. medioobscurus. Termitogeton minor is a junior synonym of T. planus. Prorhinotermes japonicus, krakataui, tibiaoensis, gracilis, tibiaoensiformis, ravani and panaitanensis all become junior synonyms of P. flavus. Odontotermes sundaicus becomes a junior synonym of O. billitoni, and O. mathuri the junior synonym of O. minutus. Termes boneensis and kalumpangensis are both junior synonyms of T. comis, and Pericaritermes papaspeciosus is the junior synonym of P. speciosus. The genus Coxocapritermes becomes the junior synonym of Pseudocapritermes, Malaysiocapritermes the junior synonym of Procapritermes and Snootitermies the junior synonym of Sabahitermes. Malaysiotermes sabahensis, malayanus, lowi and orientalis are all junior synonyms of M. spincephalus and subulioiditermes major is a junior synonym of S. subulioides. This paper also providesa key to the species of the soil-feeding Nasutitermitinae of Sundaland,as well as a checklist of all species found in the region.
