Abstract
Debris-piles made by Hodotermes mossambicus dealates digging-in after a nuptial flight were found in bushed grassland in central Kenya following unseasonal rain. Their density and survival were estimated, and their distribution examined. These are the first records of post-flight settlement density and survival in the field. © 1977 Masson.
