Hospitalitermes umbrinus

We saw a few trees in Weetootla Crrek which had suffered termite damage. While active they made channels up tthe tree, eating out it's heart and eventually killing their host.

Etta climbs a termite mound, Hazelbrook

Soldiers guarding the nest

Lin asked if that was a termite mound in the background of the picture of my rifle. Our son and I climbed up on the mound so the outfitter could get a photo, and here we are. For scale, I am 5' 11" (181 cm) tall, and our son is 6' 2" (188 cm) tall. 2/3 of the mound is actually underground, so this is a huge structure.

Termites i found under some bark. You can see nymphs of various stages, workers, soldiers here. Eggs too (not in this image).

This is what you see within seconds if you poke a small hole in a termite nest. Within 2 hours the hole was completely repaired.

Termite

From Wikipedia

 

The termites are a group of social insects usually classified at the taxonomic rank of order Isoptera (but see also taxonomy below). As truly social animals, they are termed eusocial along with the ants and some bees and wasps which are all placed in the separate order Hymenoptera. Termites mostly feed on dead plant material, generally in the form of wood, leaf litter, soil, or animal dung, and about 10% of the estimated 4,000 species (about 2,600 taxonomically known) are economically significant as pests that can cause serious structural damage to buildings, crops or plantation forests. Termites are major detrivores, particularly in the subtropical and tropical regions, and their recycling of wood and other plant matter is of considerable ecological importance.

 

As eusocial insects, termites live in colonies that, at maturity, number from several hundred to several million individuals. They are a prime example of decentralised, self-organised systems using swarm intelligence and use this cooperation to exploit food sources and environments that could not be available to any single insect acting alone. A typical colony contains nymphs (semi-mature young), workers, soldiers, and reproductive individuals of both genders, sometimes containing several egg-laying queens.

 

Termites are sometimes called "white ants", though they are unrelated to true ants.

Drepanotermes rubriceps

ID Tony Postle on BowerBird 26 Sept 2016

 

I found a hole with antennae showing. I wasn't sure what they were but the insects backed down the hole quickly when I touched the hole with a straw.

 

I came past later and there was a stream of termites running for the hole. It didn't take long for them all to disappear down the hole. I was hoping they would come out later but didn't see them again.

 

I didn't see/take notice of any evidence of termite mounds but thought many of the sticks on the ground had been eaten by termites and covered in sand.
