In recent surveys carried out in Brazil, we detected two new species of Termitomorpha Wasmann, a genus of Termitogastrina (Aleocharinae, Corotocini). This genus is easily recognizable in the subtribe by the evenly convex and smooth pronotum. The new species are: Termitomorpha sinuosa Caron, Bortoluzzi Rosa sp. nov., and Termitomorpha alata Caron Bortoluzzi, sp. nov. Both species are here described and illustrated, including scanning electron photographs. Their host termites were identified as species of Nasutitermes. The key to species of Termitomorpha is updated based on recent literature.
在巴西最近开展的调查中,我们发现了白蚁形瓦氏蚁属的两个新物种,该属属于白蚁腹菌亚科(隐翅虫亚科,科罗托金族)。在该亚族中,这个属很容易通过均匀凸起且光滑的前胸背板识别出来。新物种分别是:弯白蚁形瓦氏蚁,卡隆、博托卢齐、罗莎新种,以及翅白蚁形瓦氏蚁,卡隆、博托卢齐新种。这两个物种均在此处进行了描述和图示,包括扫描电子显微镜照片。它们的寄主白蚁被鉴定为鼻白蚁属的物种。基于近期文献对白蚁形瓦氏蚁属的物种检索表进行了更新。
