''Heterotermes'' is a genus of termites belonging to the family Rhinotermitidae. The genus has almost cosmopolitan distribution. General overview Heterotermes is a termite genus from the Rhinotermitidae Family. One of their closest relatives is Reticulitermes. And like its relative, some Heterotermes have also been considered pests because they form pretty large colonies; to feed all their members, they need food in massive amounts. Therefore, Heterotermes try to feed themselves by gathering cellulose food from dead tree logs, stumps, and branches, to man-made wooden structures in buildings, books, paper, etc. Heterotermes are also one of the most adaptive termites around, and they have a relatively fast growth rate in mature colonies if they have the perfect conditions to thrive. They can be found in very dry areas and also somewhat humid areas with plenty of wood. One of the other adaptations in Heterotermes is the relatively fast Neotenic formation within the colony.
