Foraging behaviour and feeding habits in five species of trinervitermes in west africa
1961
SANDS, W.A.
Foraging habits of five species of Trinervitermes occurring in W. Africa are described. The five species can be divided into two groups, comprising those which store grass fragments in the mounds and those which do not. Size distributions of stored grass fragments differ specifically. Experiments indicated that selective foraging of grass species may occur. Survival on various foods suggested adaptation to differing conditions in each species. The occurrence of all five species in one area seems to depend on a suitable mosaic of conditions.
