Morphometric analysis for population samples of imago caste of odontotermes feae (Wasmann) (Isoptera: Termitidae: (Macrotermitinae)

Morphometric variations in imago caste of odontotermes feae (wasmann) were studied for the first time from the india and bangladesh. samples from six different nests have been statistically analyzed. further comparison was made by considering all parameters for manhattan distance re-arranged by similarity. cluster analysis revealed that sample from locality b (india: mysore) and c (india: calcutta) were more closely related. morphometric analysis presented in this research for o. feae (wasmann) will serve as standard comparison for future specimens of this species. copyright 2012 zoological society of pakistan.
