Hou-Feng Lis research
My M.S. projects focus on foraging gallery construction by Formosan subterranean termites. My PhD. projects involved in phylogeographic study of the Formosan subterranean termite and Asian subterranean termites, their inter-specific competition, and population control. I also organized two long-term projects. Investigation of ecology and dispersal flight seasons of the three minor insect orders (Isoptera, Embiidina, and Strepsiptera) has been on-going in south Florida with help of the sterpsiteran expert Dr. Jeyaraney Kathirithamby from University of Oxford, and Dr. William H. Kern Jr. of Ft. Lauderdale REC. In Taiwan, survey of termites and termite-associated nematodes started in 2005 in cooperation with Dr. Natsumi Kanzaki, nematode taxonomist of Forestry and Forest Product Research Institute, Japan, and the entomologist, Dr. Yen-Chiu Lan of Leader University, Taiwan.
