The objectives of this study were to observe the external development of Metarhizium anisopliae and Beauveria bassiana on workers and soldiers of Cornitermes cumulans (Kollar) and to establish comparisons between the insect fixation techniques known as critical point and desiccator. Termite workers and soldiers inoculated with B. bassiana (447) and M. anisopliae (1037) were utilized. After inoculation, the insects were left at 25±0.5°C. In order to make observations, samples from both castes were removed at 0, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168h after inoculation. The external development of M. anisopliae and B. bassiana conidia on the termite C. cumulans showed that M. anisopliae and B. bassiana conidial germination occurred on several regions of...
