Disturbance-modulated symbioses in termitophily.
Monteiro I, Viana-Junior AB, de Castro Solar RR, de Siqueira Neves F, DeSouza O. Monteiro I, et al. Ecol Evol. 2017 Nov 9;7(24):10829-10838. doi: 10.1002/ece3.3601. eCollection 2017 Dec. Ecol Evol. 2017. PMID: 29299261 Free PMC article.
We provide evidence that such an abiotic disturbance can ease the living-together of termitophiles and termites. Putative processes facilitating these symbioses, however, varied according to the invader. ...As for social invaders (ants), disturbance seemed to enhance assoc …

A New Termitophilous Rove Beetle from Brazil Suggests an Undersampling Scenario and Cospeciation between Termites and their Termitophiles in the Neotropical region (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae).
Pires-Silva CM, Zilberman B, Eloi I, Rocha MM. Pires-Silva CM, et al. Neotrop Entomol. 2023 Oct;52(5):802-813. doi: 10.1007/s13744-023-01063-z. Epub 2023 Jul 26. Neotrop Entomol. 2023. PMID: 37495766
Additional sampling is required to fully comprehend the relationships between termitophiles and their termite hosts. The outcomes of this study provide new insights into the undersampling scenario and possibly cospeciation between termites and their termitophiles in …

Termite nest evolution fostered social parasitism by termitophilous rove beetles.
Mizumoto N, Bourguignon T, Kanao T. Mizumoto N, et al. Evolution. 2022 May;76(5):1064-1072. doi: 10.1111/evo.14457. Epub 2022 Mar 31. Evolution. 2022. PMID: 35319096 Free PMC article.
Although some termite species host numerous parasitic arthropod species, called termitophiles, others host none. The reason for this large variability remains unknown. ...Notably, the few one-piece nesting species hosting termitophiles were those having foraging pot …

Different faces, same attitudes: behavioral mimicry and description of a new termitophilous species of the remarkable rove beetle genus Thyreoxenus (Staphylinidae, Aleocharinae, Corotocini) from Brazil with notes on post-imaginal growth.
Pires-Silva CM, Zilberman B, Eloi I. Pires-Silva CM, et al. Naturwissenschaften. 2022 Nov 2;109(6):53. doi: 10.1007/s00114-022-01820-x. Naturwissenschaften. 2022. PMID: 36322254
While some mechanisms that ensure the integration of the termitophiles into the colony are well known, such as chemical mimicry, others remain unclear. ...We address behavioral mimicry as an important integration mechanism between termitophiles and termites. We comp …

Response to "Evidence from amber for the origins of termitophily".
Cai C, Huang D, Newton AF, Eldredge KT, Engel MS. Cai C, et al. Curr Biol. 2017 Aug 21;27(16):R794-R795. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2017.06.083. Curr Biol. 2017. PMID: 28829962 Free article.
In a recent Current Biology paper [1], we reported the oldest, morphologically specialized, and obligate termitophiles, Cretotrichopsenius burmiticus (Figure 1, left), from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber, about 99 million years old. ...We stand by our interpretation that Cre …
