Morphological Features
Imago: head capsule dark brown with broad whitish cranial sutures, densely covered with short setae interspersed with a few longer setae; pronotum pale sepia brown, distinctly paler than head capsule, with pale T-shaped mark, densely covered with short setae, longer setae along margins; pronotum posterior margin half width of anterior margin and slightly emarginate or concave; head and pronotum densely pilose with long setae; fontanelle small, circular, located between eyes; ocelli large, oval, almost touching eyes; postclypeus light brown; genae light brown; vertex and anterior occiput slightly bulging in lateral view; legs, tergites, and sternites densely covered with setae; forewing length from suture 5.50–11.50 mm, width 1.53–3.20 mm; hind tibia length 0.82–1.53 mm. Soldier: head capsule with nasus; head length with nasus 1.19–1.36 mm; head width maximum 0.72–0.79 mm; nasus length 0.43–0.51 mm; pronotum maximum width 0.37–0.39 mm; total length 3.18–3.77 mm; head capsule, pronotum, and wing scales densely pilose with long setae; mandible morphology typical for Nasutitermes. Worker: major worker maximum head width 0.96 mm; minor worker maximum head width 0.78 mm.
