Abstract
Some aspects of the chemical characteristics of the crusts of the mounds of four Nigerian termites and physical properties of the crust of the mound of one were studied. It was found generally that the mound crust of Macrotermes bellicosus was poorer in chemical constituents than the surrounding soils. The reverse was the case in the mounds of Amitermes evuncifer Silverstri, Cubitermes sp., and Trinervitermes sp. The hydraulic conductivities of the crust of the mound of A. evuncifer was also determined.
