Vibratory behaviour produces different vibrations patterns in presence of reproductives in a subterranean termite species

Abstract Vibratory behaviours are widespread in social insects, but the produced vibrations remain poorly explored. Communication using vibrations is an efficient way to transmit information in subterranean environments where visual and odorant signals are less efficient. In termites, different vibr...
