LIRRARY OF CONGRESS CATALOG CARD NO. 57-6958. 6 - '36 Acknowledgments I have received much help from many persons during the preparation of this work. There have been those who collected and presented speci- mens; those with whom I have exchanged material; those who have lent me authentically determined, slide-mounted thrips; and there have been those who shared with me their personal observations and opinions. Then, too, I have been aided by officials of museums and other insti- tutions in the United States of America, Canada, Mexico, Great Britain, and Egypt. Besides personal help and favors, I have received financial aid from the Society of the Sigma Xi and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. In fact, so many have assisted me that to list their names alone would fill several pages. I have acknowledged my grateful appreciation to these persons directly. Collectively and publicly, I repeat my thanks to all those whose names appear in the following pages. Alone I would not have dared tackle the Thysanoptera. Only because of the backing, help, and advice received, was I able to begin and continue the study of these difficult insects. Although indebted to all mentioned herein, I am obligated in particular to Professor H. H. Ross. I single out Professor Ross because he taught me the fundamentals of taxonomy and willingly gave of his time and thoughts to hear my many problems on nomenclature, morphology, and the puzzling problems of variation in the thrips. I am most grateful for his encouragement and guidance. L. J. S., Jr. I vj Contents INTRODUCTION 1 NOTES ON HABITS 4 MORPHOLOGY 6 CLASSIFICATION 14 PHYLOGENY 114 LITERATURE CITED 145 PLATES 159 INDEX 189 [vii] Introduction The Thysanoptera or thrips as an order are the smallest of the pterygote insects. Possibly because of their minuteness only a limited number of students have ever attempted serious studies of them. In North America particularly, there have never been more than a half- dozen thysanopterists actively working at any one time since Fitch described the first American species in 1855. It is not surprising then to find that, as Hood wrote in 1912, "The classification of the order Thysanoptera is admittedly much in need of attention and reliable synopses of genera and species are conspicuously wanting." Today, more than 40 years later, the same long-felt need for synopses still exists, especially of the North American fauna. In the earlier days of thrips investigations several monographs were presented. Uzel's monograph of 1895 became the basis for our modern studies. Shortly after Uzel laid the groundwork, Hinds treated the North American species in 1902. Stimulated by both of these volumes, a number of students took up the study of Thysanoptera; most of them began their work during the decade between 1908 and 1918. It was these thysanopterists, notably Bagnall, Hood, Karny, Moulton, Priesner, and Watson, who diligently described the species, discovered the main diag- nostic features, and devised our system of classification. Other capable workers joined in from time to time, and during the last half century, they and the older students have contributed a plethora of new species and generic descriptions which have appeared in many of the scientific journals of the world. Amidst such a welter of new species and genera, it was indeed a bright note when, in 1949, Priesner published a key to the known genera. Now that a key is available, efforts could profitably be directed toward analytical studies of the groups and even detailed studies of species much as Speyer, Ghabn, and Pelikan have done. In far too many in- stances, however, our keys and descriptions have remained isolated bits of information with little reference to the whole. In recent years, Priesner and Bailey have revised several groups of large size. Although Priesner's works are by far the most comprehensive in treatment and in scope in comparison to any other student's, past or present, most of his studies pertain to exotic faunas, particularly the European, African, and Oriental faunas. [11 Z NORTH AMERICAN GENERA OF TURULIFERA In this country, Bailey has started to monograph the North American species. Shortly he will have completed reviews of the genera in the family Aeolothripidae of the suborder Terebrantia. There remain, how- ever, many hundred more genera in the other families of the Terebrantia and in the other suborder, the Tubulifera, whose classification needs to be revised. In particular, the North American Tubulifera are exceptionally poorly understood. Many species have been assigned to the wrong genus and many genera have been erected without redefinition of the older genera from which they were separated. Furthermore, no recent list of these Tubulifera or even the briefest kind of a catalogue or monograph has been available to serve the needs of students of North American thrips.

  • Thysanoptera (Insecta) of Barrow Island, Western Australia
    RECORDS OF THE WESTERN AUSTRALIAN MUSEUM 83 287–290 (2013) SUPPLEMENT Thysanoptera (Insecta) of Barrow Island, Western Australia Laurence A. Mound CSIRO Ecosystem Sciences, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT – Almost 50 species of the insect order Thysanoptera are here listed from Barrow Island, Western Australia, of which several are known only from this island. This cannot be interpreted as indicating that any species is endemic to the island, because almost nothing is known of the Thysanoptera fauna of the nearby mainland. KEYWORDS: Thysanoptera, thrips, Barrow Island INTRODUCTION taxa that have been recognised from the available samples. The Australian fauna of the insect order Thysanoptera is far from exhaustively known. Within the order Thysanoptera, two suborders The number of correctly identified species from are recognised, both of which are well represented this continent was less than 20 in 1915, about 225 on Barrow Island.

However, even a single family, Phlaeothripidae, whereas the Terebrantia includes five families in Australia the total of 830 species now listed (ABRS 2012) (Mound et al. 2012), of which three were found in seems likely to represent little more than 50% of the Barrow Island samples.

  • Phlaeothripidae: Thysanoptera
    Vol. XXII, No. 3, December, 1977 495 A Review of the Hawaiian Species of Idolothripinae (Phlaeothripidae: Thysanoptera) K. Sakimura and F. A. Bianchi BISHOP MUSEUM, HONOLULU, HAWAII Published knowledge of the Hawaiian tubuliferous thrips fauna is meager. This is largely due to the limited extent to which our findings have been reported in the past. Those accumulated findings are being jointly reported in this paper and in others to follow. The primary objective of these papers is to assemble all the information on these thrips together in a ready reference available for local use. All the Hawaiian literatures will be completely cited. Recent innovations in the systematics of the suborder Tubulifera, specifically the two major contributions by Mound (1974a, b) on the Pacific Idolothripinae, provided impetus to the study of the Hawaiian species. The last review of the Hawaiian Thysanoptera (Zimmerman 1948) is in need of extensive clarifications and additions. It listed only six idolothripine species. In the present review, one synonymy and two nomenclatural changes are reported, and four more species, including one new to science, are added. A new idolothripine species described subsequent to the last review was found to have been misplaced in this subfamily. Among nine species listed here, only three are considered endemic to the Hawaiian Islands. Materials accumulated in the Sakimura Collection and the Bishop Museum Collection are all pooled in this work. The Bianchi Collection, which included the HSPA Collection and the Hawaiian Entomological Society Collection, is now deposited in the Bernice P. Biship Museum. In our listings of "Material Studied" and "Earlier Collection Recorded", specimens from the Sakimura Collection are all specified by his accession numbers, and those from the Bishop Museum Collection are marked with an asterisk.

  • Idolothripinae
    Index | Glossary A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Idolothripinae Introduction The sub-order Tubulifera comprises a single family of living thrips, the Phlaeothripidae, and in this two subfamilies are recognised (ThripsWiki, 2020). Subfamily Phlaeothripinae includes 2990 described species in 370 genera worldwide, and the Idolothripinae 735 species in 83 genera. An alternative classification proposed by Bhatti (1992, 1994) recognised an Head & pronotumWingless female Male head & fore leg Order Tubulifera in which eight small families were distinguished from Phlaeothripidae. There is no general introduction to the Phlaeothripidae of Australia, but introductions are available to the taxa in this Family from the Neotropics (Mound & Marullo, 1996) and also from Japan (Okajima, 2006). An introduction to the Idolothripinae of Australia that included 70 species in 23 genera is well out-of- Female Male Female Head & pronotum date (Mound, 1974), but a revision is available of the taxa related to the genus Nesothrips (Eow et al., 2014), as is a key to world genera of this subfamily (Mound & Palmer, 1983). Currently, just over 100 species in 25 genera of Idolothripinae are listed from Australia, but only six of the genera are endemic, with most having wide distributions across Asia and the Pacific. Wingless & winged females These spore-feeding thrips live on the surface of dead twigs and Head & pronotum (wingless branches, and also in leaf-litter on the ground (Tree & Walter, female) 2012). Thrips on dead bark in Australia are exposed to desiccation, and also to a wide range of predators including birds, lizards, ants and spiders.

To determine which other viruses are associated with soybean thrips, the metatranscriptome of soybean thrips, collected by the Midwest Suction Trap Network during 2018, was analyzed. Contigs assembled from the data revealed a remarkable diversity of virus-like sequences. Of the 181 virus-like sequences identified, 155 were novel and associated primarily with taxa of arthropod-infecting viruses, but sequences similar to plant and fungus-infecting viruses were also identified.

In this study, 32 species including unknown Ceratothrips sp., which is first recorded in Japan. key words: Thysanoptera, port area, Kanto-region, East Japan, Ceratothrips Introduction Recently, many kind of plants are imported into japan from throughout every place of the world and those quantity tend to increase. Therefore , these are a great risk that invade many pests such as Thrips palmi and Frankliniella occidentalis which have caused economic damage to horticultural plants because of the difficulty of its control. The authors researched on thysanopterous fauna around the some ports from Kanto-region to Hokkaido in East Japan because it is neccessary that the insects fauna arround the sea port and airport area are grasped for discovery of those pests and diseases in eary stage of invading them as above. Materials and Methods Thysanoptera discovered around the port area, Yokohama, Tokyo, Chiba, Hitachi and airport of Narita and Haneda of Kanto-region in Central Japan are provided in this paper (Fig. 1). In principle, this research is done around the each ports imported plants in every spring and autu- mun. The data of present paper is results of research in 1995 (Yokohama in 1993-1995).
