About Costa-Leonardo AM

Costa-Leonardo AM, With an exceptional h-index of 24 and a recent h-index of 13 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Universidade Estadual Paulista, specializes in the field of termites, Isoptera, exocrine glands, morphology, pheromones.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Mating- and oviposition-dependent changes of the spermatheca and colleterial glands in the pest termite Cryptotermes brevis (Blattaria, Isoptera, Kalotermitidae)

New reports on the association between eggs and sclerotium-forming fungi in Neotropical termites with insights into this mutualistic interaction

On the reproductive strategies post-colony foundation: major termite pest species with distinct ecological habits differ in their oviposition dynamics

Functional Morphology and Development of the Colleterial Glands in Non- and Egg-Laying Females of the Pest Termite Coptotermes gestroi (Blattaria, Isoptera …

Termite exocrine systems: a review of current knowledge

Secretory oviducts contribute to the high egg-laying rate of physogastric termite queens (Isoptera: Termitidae)

Mating mediates morphophysiological changes in the spermathecae of Coptotermes gestroi queens

Differentiation of workers into soldiers is associated with a size reduction of higher-order brain centers in the neotropical termite Procornitermes araujoi
