Thorne, Michael I. Haverty, Margaret S. Collins] The syntype series of the Antillean termite Nasutitermes acajutlae (Holmgren) (Isoptera: Termitidae; Nasutitermitinae) is reexamined. We discovered that one of the specimens, collected from Acajutla, San Salvador, did not come from the island of San Salvador in the Bahamas, as had been assumed since its description in 1910. Instead, it was collected from a locality near the capital of the Central American country of El Salvador. That specimen can now be identified as N. nigriceps (Haldeman). We designate the soldier from the St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, syntype series as the lectotype of the species N. acajutlae. © 1996 Entomological Society of America Systematics nationallicence Nasutitermes acajutlae nationallicence Nasutitermes nigriceps nationallicence Isoptera nationallicence Termitidae nationallicence Nasutitermitinae nationallicence Thorne Barbara L.
