Termite I found this kind of termite in one of the mountains of Dhofar, and it feeds on dry wood<br />
He also builds his house on these woods, and he is very helpful in balancing the environment in this region in the Dhofar Mountains <br />

 Termites are a common name given to a group of insects that feed on cellulose more closely related to cockroaches than to ants.<br />

  1. This photo is incredible, well done! And, it's great that you provided information, but could you please phrase it in your own words rather than copying it from Wikipedia? Thanks! Posted 5 years ago
  2. Incredible shot!

    Abo, note that I removed your description, which was copied from Wikipedia. Copying text from another site into JungleDragon is bad for JungleDragon. Google will detect the page as a duplicate and then lower the rank of this website.

    Like Christine said, please give a meaningful title and description in your own words.

    To be clear, the photo is incredible, and you'll do it even more justice by giving it a good title and description :) Let me know if you have any questions?

  4. Hi Abo, I got your message, but can't identify this termite without the genus and species. It's already labeled as a termite, which will have to do for now. Sorry! Posted 4 years ago
