 13.9° C. in surrounding soil; tempera- 

 ture in garden not constant, followed 

 that of soil at equal depths but always 

 a few degrees warmer.) 



HoLDAWAY, F. G., and Gay, F. J., 1948, pp. 

 464-493. (Temperature mound Eutermes 

 exitiosus, Australia, not constant, varies 

 with time of day and environmental 

 temperature; temperature of nursery con- 

 tinuously higher than air or soil, follows 

 seasonal change in air temperature. Tem- 

 perature of occupied mound higher 

 (14.5° to 18.6° F.) than unoccupied due 

 to metabolism termites. Fewer termites 

 in mound in summer than winter. Pres- 

 ence alates raises temperature 10° to 

 13° F. Mound temperature enables de- 

 termination difference between populous 

 and nonpopulous nests; i.e., vitality of 



colony can be checked by temperature 

 variation.)
