摘要：

Amitermes nordestinus, sp. n., inhabits the semiarid caatinga domain in the northeast region of Brazil, where it is commonly found in underground tunnels, below and among the roots of epigeic bromeliads. It is a pest of pineapple and sugar cane crops, in the latter case in areas previously occupied by the Atlantic forest.
