齒白蟻科（學名：Serritermitidae）為一種白蟻的科，僅產自南美洲巴西的珍貴獨模標本。

Holmgren把它放在鼻白蟻科的齒白蟻亞科，Ahmad將齒白蟻亞科自白蟻亞科中移到白蟻科的個亞科。最後Emerson認為齒白蟻亞科的成蟲上顎具特大端齒、非常大的切緣和僅有一個緣齒以及兵蟻上顎內緣的全緣具鋸齒的特殊性，放在鼻白蟻科或白蟻科中都不適宜，應單獨設立齒白蟻科這一觀點已被世界各國白蟻分類學家所認同。該科有工蟻品級。

形態

有翅成蟲有囟，左上顎具特次端齒，非常大的切緣，僅有一個緣齒；右上顎無附屬齒；前翅鱗遠大於後翅鱗。

These termites are much like family Rhinotermitidae, as they are related to. They may feel that the soldiers' jaws are sharply toothed on the inner side. At all stages the mandible strikingly sharp. The flying stages have forewings with only one lengdeåre, slightly ahead of the center of the wing. From this it affects numerous oblique veins to the wing trailing edge.

習性

Tuen located in or on the ground. The mode of life resembles the much of the family Rhinotermitidae. Serritermes serrifer lives in the walls of the tufts of termites in the genus Cornitermes (Termitidae).

Prevalence

Serritermes serresi known from the states of Minas Gerais and Mato Grosso, Brazil. The two Glossotermes species are known only from the Amazon region of Brazil.
