A new systematic key to genera of Thailand’s termites based on soldier characteristics was developed from four thousand three hundred collections recorded across the country. A total 37 genera in 4 families and 10 subfamilies was described. Further taxonomic studies to species level and their distribution were also conducted. Historic and current lists of species were included.
