What is another word for Family Cryptocercidae?
Pronunciation: [fˈamɪli kɹˈɪptə͡ʊsəsˌɪdiː] (IPA) 
Family Cryptocercidae refers to a group of termites commonly known as the "powderpost termites". While they bear the name "termites", they are not affiliated with the true termite families, as their biology differs greatly from them. Due to their wood-boring traits, these insects have caused much damage to households and wooden furniture over the years. They are also living in symbiotic relationships with a specific flagellate, a protozoan that lives in their gut, which is unique among termites and aids in the digestion of cellulose. Other synonyms for Family Cryptocercidae include powderpost termites, woodworms, and wood borers.
