Prorhinotermes simplex, the Cuban subterranean termite, is a species of lower termite in the genus Prorhinotermes.[1][2] It is found in Colombia.[3] Like others in its genus, it is a single-site nesting termite that moves to a new food source when theirs is gone, and it lacks a true worker caste.[4]
