0 living in colonies (= groups) with one animal or group producing young and the others working to care for them:
The eusocial insects are confined to two orders, the Isoptera (termites) and the Hymenoptera (bees, wasps, ants).
Termites have evolved eusocial lifestyles.
the eusocial organisations found, for example, among the social hymenoptera, termites and naked mole rats
The study used demography data for the eusocial wasp Ropalidia fasciata.
All other orders also contain non-eusocial species, including many lineages where eusociality was inferred to be the ancestral state.
Caterpillars spin silk prolifically and in comparison to other non-eusocial insects build large and relatively complex structures from the material.
Creatures of this world include dinosaur-sized tortoises, amphibious octopuses, four-winged birds and eusocial spiders.
The large colony size of eusocial insects elicits both costs and benefits.
