摘要
Atheta dominguezae (Coleoptera) is described from SRI LANKA where it is found with Hospitalitermes monocerus (Isoptera). Behavioral observations indicate that the beetles are termitariophiles. What is novel about this ttermitariophile is that this species was found to live in this same nest over a period of 13 years.
