Abstract
The Coptotermes Wasmann (1896), is a highly scattered genus, which is represented by nine species. Coptotermes emersoni Ahmad (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae: Coptotermitinae) is a species first time reported from Southern Haryana, India, with specimens trapped from banyan tree. Morphometric analysis of soldiers like body length, head length without mandibles, head length with mandibles, body pigmentation, antennae segments, tibial spur, tarsal segments, head width, and body width has been made. These reveals that C. emersoni has crenulations present on each of the mandibles, right mandible with two crenulation and left mandible with five crenulations which make it unique among other species of the genus Coptotermes.
