An interior drywall has developed holes and tunnels. Could this be termites and if so what type?

Question: I have just been notified by a tenant that an interior drywall
has developed holes and tunnels, some holes are capped with a brownish
material. Could this be termites and if so what type termite is most
likely. In some places on the interior I do see what I recognize as
termite damage.

 

ANSWER  Most likely these are subterranean termites.
