@clementkent I remember being quite confused about the multiple possible pathways to eusociality.
@clementkent (You can see in that blog post that I'm trying hard to reconcile two possible mechanisms just for termites alone)
@clementkent That's fantastic, I'm glad to meet you! I've been hoping I'd find lots of evolution-of-cooperation people to follow on here.
I unfortunately haven't had a chance to look deeply into insect eusociality. The furthest I got was once, a long time ago, and aborted project on termites. I wrote a blog post about what I learnt here: https://nadiah.org/2016/03/23/termite-eusociality/
