011621419B855DAC861A229E8392DFD9.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Among mainland South American Glyptotermes, the soldier of G. canellae is the second largest after G. hospitalis (Emerson, 1925) from Guyana. The projecting genal horns of the G. canellae soldier are diagnostic.	en	Scheffrahn, Rudolf H. (2021): The termite genus Glyptotermes (Isoptera, Kalotermitidae) from Paraguay.

011621419B855DAC861A229E8392DFD9.taxon	materials_examined	Material examined. Paraguay, S. Piribebuy (- 25.5368, - 57.0244), elev. 229, 27 May 2012, R. Scheffrahn et al., UFTC no. PA 89 containing 2 soldiers, 12 alates, and many pseudergates. The types were not examined, but the soldier measurements in Silvestri (1903: 36) and photographs in Holmgren (1911; pl. 4, figs 14, 15) of C. lobicephalus are of excellent quality. The measurements agree with those in Table 2 and the photographs show the characteristically deeply bilobed frons and its steep angle from the vertex (Figs 5, 6 C) that are unique for Glyptotermes soldiers of this region.	en	Scheffrahn, Rudolf H.

A32A4091456D5D4AB4B6F4DAFE56D085.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Among the ten South American Glyptotermes species for which the soldier is known, the G. hickmani sp. nov. soldier is closest in head width to G. guianensis (Emerson, 1925), but in lateral view, G. guianensis has angular frontal horns compared to the rounded frontal horns of G. hickmani. The frontal horns of the G. hickmani soldier are diagnostic.	en	Scheffrahn, Rudolf H. (2021): The termite genus Glyptotermes (Isoptera, Kalotermitidae) from Paraguay.

A32A4091456D5D4AB4B6F4DAFE56D085.taxon	description	Description. Dealated Imago (Fig. 2, Table 1). Head and pronotum castaneus brown (almost black in live habitus, Fig. 6 A). Postclypeus hyaline; labrum light orange-brown. Fore wing scales concolorous with pronotum. Femora slightly lighter than pronotum; tibiae concolorous with labrum. In lateral view, vertex of head with 20 - 24 scattered setae of medium length. In dorsal view, pronotum with about 20 setae of variable length along each lateral margin; in lateral view, with setae in line with anterior and posterior margins; a few in middle. Eyes small, dark gray, occupying less than one-third the distance between vertex and genal margins; ellipsoid with rectate margin at antennal socket. Ocelli small, orange, elliptical; separated from eye by their narrow width. Antennae article formula 2 <3> 4 = 5. Pronotum wider than long, about as wide as head capsule without eyes; anterior and posterior margins with slight concavity, sides slightly convex. Arolia present. Soldier (Fig. 3, Table 2). Head, in lateral view, grading from light orange at the cervical margin to dark brown at frontal horns (darker in live habitus, Fig. 6 B). Mandibles concolorous with frons. Head capsule nearly cuboid; about as wide as high; with distinct narrowing near anterior fourth. Pronotum more than twice as wide as long, widest near front third; anterior margin weakly concave, posterior margin barely concave in middle. In dorsal and ventral views, setae on head and pronotum medium to long; about 4 - 5 short setae on basal hump of mandibles. In lateral view, setae less numerous except for setae on postmentum. Mandibles robust, form about two-thirds of total head length; curve apically near anterior half, humps at basal fourth evenly rounded beyond outer blades. Dentition as in Fig. 3. Frons bilobed; lobes rounded in lateral view; frontal furrow between lobes extends to postclypeus. Angle formed by vertex and frons about 75 °; lateral view of frons punctuated by large, knob-like, frontal horns. Eye spots very faint. In ventral view, posterior margin of postmentum slightly wider than middle. Genal horns rounded from above, project slightly beyond narrowest point of head capsule. Antenna with 11 - 12 articles; formula 2> 3 <4 <5. Femora swollen.	en	Scheffrahn, Rudolf H. (2021): The termite genus Glyptotermes (Isoptera, Kalotermitidae) from Paraguay.
