Expanded New World distributions of genera in the termite family Kalotermitidae

Abstract

The New World Kalotermitidae constitute about one-fourth of all termite species in this region. The geographic distributions of all fifteen kalotermitid genera are updated based on records in the University of Florida Termite Collection and in the literature. Range-appropriate exotic records of four pest species are also given. New distribution records are presented on maps, and representative soldier photographs are provided for each genus.
