Notes:
Summary: We suggest that group effect need not be invoked to explain the differences in latency times exhibited by groups of different sizes in the initiation of building in the termite Macrotermes subhyalinus (Rambur). A simple, alternative, model is presented, that is fully consistent with experimental data.
