通过记录种群大小、行为频率、时间分配和行为转移概率，研究了湿木白蚁幼虫群体中雄性和雌性初级繁殖个体的亲代照料和劳动分工。男性和女性的数量相同，行为发生的频率也相似。时间预算数据还表明，男女在父母照顾方面的参与程度是平等的。转移概率分析表明，男性和女性不会以角色的形式组织他们的行为。因此，我们没有发现在殖民地建立和殖民地生长的初期阶段基于性别的劳动分工的迹象。缺乏行为专业化可能是因为行为可能相关和/或具有多个功能，而不同的任务在空间上没有关联。我们的观察结果与白蚁中的一夫一妻制交配系统包含交配辅助的假设是一致的。
Parental care and division of labor in male and female primary reproductives in incipient colonies of the dampwood termite Zootermopsis angusticolliswere studied by recording repertory sizes, behavior frequencies, time budgets, and transition probabilities of acts. Repertory sizes for males and females were identical, and behaviors were performed at similar frequencies. Time budget data also suggested equal participation in parental care by both sexes. Transition probability analysis suggested that males and females did not organize their behavior in roles. We therefore found no indication of sex-based division of labor during colony foundation and the incipient stages of colony growth. The lack of behavioral specialization may be due to the fact that acts might be related and/or have more than one function, and different tasks are not spatially associated. Our observations are consistent with the hypothesis that monogamous mating systems in termites involve mate assistance.
