Zoraptera are tiny, hemimetabolous insects superficially resembling barklice ([[Psocoptera]]) or [[termite]]s (Isoptera). == Description == Individuals are generally less than 3 mm in total body length, exclusive of their antennae, and are gregarious. Overall, zorapterans are quite homogenous in their morphology and tend to be off-white (mostly nymphs) to brown in color. Individuals of each species occur in two morphs: eyed and winged forms that then shed their wings after dispersal or blind and apterous forms that predominate in colonies. == Other websites == {{commonscat-inline|Zoraptera}} {{wikispecies-inline|Zoraptera}} {{taxonbar|from=Q540502}} {{authority control}} [[category:Insects]] {{biology-stub}}
