ABSTRACT
Termite nest distribution in various plant communities
of Eastern Baluchistan was studied. On the basis of
termite nest density and extent of termite infested area
it was concluded that out of 19 plant communities, four
have serious (nest density >124/ha, infested area
115m2/ha, five have mild nest density 62-124/ha, 23
115m2 and three have minor nest density <62/ha, infested
area >23m2/ha, termite infestation problem, while
remaining seven plant communities have no termite
problem. In almost all communities, distribution of
termite nest was not uniform,(frequency<50.0%).
