白蚁科（学名：Termitidae），俗称“高等白蚁 (higher termite)”，属蜚蠊目等翅下目。白蚁科为等翅下目中最大的科，约占已知物种数的四分之三。
白蚁科为白蚁演化树上最末端的类群，多样性极高。有些物种具有工蚁多形性，有些具有兵蚁多形性，有些则同时具有工蚁及兵蚁多形性；有些物种没有兵蚁，有些则具有高度特化的兵蚁。
分类
过往白蚁科分为下列四个亚科：
- 弓白蚁亚科 Amitermitinae Kemner, 1934：有争议
- 白蚁亚科 Termitinae
- 大白蚁亚科 Macrotermitinae
- 象白蚁亚科 Nasutitermitinae
根据Engel (2011)，原弓白蚁亚科被并入原白蚁亚科；现时白蚁科分为以下八个亚科[1]：
- Apicotermitinae Grassé & Noirot, 1954 [1955] (异名：Indotermitidae Roonwal & Sen Sarma in Roonwal, 1958)
- Cubitermitinae Weidner, 1956
- Foraminitermitinae Holmgren, 1912 (synonym: Pseudomicrotermitinae Holmgren, 1912)
- 大白蚁亚科 Macrotermitinae Kemner, 1934, nomen protectum [ICZN 2003] (异名：Acanthotermitinae Sjöstedt, 1926, nomen rejiciendum [ICZN 2003]; Odontotermitini Weidner, 1956
- 象白蚁亚科 Nasutitermitinae Hare, 1937
- Sphaerotermitinae Engel & Krishna, 2004a
- Syntermitinae Engel & Krishna, 2004a (异名：Cornitermitinae Ensaf et al., 2004, nomen nudum)
- 白蚁亚科 Termitinae Latreille, 1802 (异名： Microcerotermitinae Holmgren, 1910b; Amitermitinae Kemner, 1934 (disputed); Mirocapritermitinae Kemner, 1934; Mirotermitini Weidner, 1956; Capritermitini Weidner, 1956)
