EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "The Majestic Heart of a Termite Colony: A Queen Surrounded by Her Court" This photograph showcases an intriguing moment within the complex world of a termite colony, specifically the Macrotermes species. At the center lies the queen, the monarch of this underground metropolis, surrounded by her loyal subjects - the smaller king, workers, soldiers, and white larvae. The queen, an essential figure in the termite society, is responsible for egg production and maintaining the colony's growth. She is typically larger than the other termites, with wings that are often shed after mating. In this image, she is seen in her royal chamber, an opened queen cell, which provides a glimpse into the inner workings of the termite society. The smaller king, present in the photograph, plays a crucial role in mating with the queen and ensuring the continuation of the colony. Workers, the most numerous caste, are responsible for maintaining the nest, caring for the young, and foraging for food. Soldiers, with their powerful mandibles, protect the colony from threats. White larvae, which can be seen in the image, are the youngest members of the colony, undergoing metamorphosis to become workers, soldiers, or reproductives. Termites, as members of the Arthropoda phylum, are invertebrates, sharing characteristics with other insects, such as roaches and larvae. This image, taken during the daytime, highlights the diverse and intricate nature of the termite society, a testament to the fascinating world of hexapods and the intricacies of the insect kingdom. This photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, provides a unique perspective into the hidden world of termite colonies, inviting us to appreciate the complexity and organization of these seemingly ordinary insects.
