TY - JOUR A1 - Roonwal, Mithan L. T1 - Measurements of termites (Isoptera) for taxonomic purposes T2 - Journal of the Zoological Society of India N2 - After giving a brief historical account of the use and precise definitions of the various measurements and their indices in termites, the need for bringing together all such known measurements and indices in the fonn a monograph is explained. Precisely defined measurements obviate the necessity of using vague expressions for the comparison of allied taxa. Of the 88 measurements and 53 indices thus listed, 66 and 34 respectively have been used already in the published literature, and 22 and 19 new ones are added here.
