Abstract
Coptotermes curvignathus is a free foraging subterranean termite preferring and selectively infesting unhealthy palms such as Ganoderma infected palms in the field. This study shows that about 99 per cent of the 15-year-old termite infested palms were also infected by Ganoderma basal stem rot. Keywords: Subterranean termites, Coptotermes curvignathus, Ganoderma.
