Abstract Caliothrips fasciatus is native to the USA and western Mexico and overwintering adults are regular contaminants in the ‘navel’ of navel oranges exported from California, USA to Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere. Due to the long history of regular interceptions of C. fasciatus in Australia, a survey for this thrips was undertaken around airports, seaports, public recreational parks and major agricul- tural areas in the states of Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia to determine whether C. fasciatus has successfully invaded Australia. Host plants that are known to support populations of C. fasciatus, such as various annual and perennial agricultural crops, urban ornamentals and weeds along with native Australian flora, were sampled for this thrips. A total of 4675 thrips specimens encompassing at least 76 species from a minimum of 47 genera, and three families were collected from at least 159 plant species in 67 families. Caliothrips striatopterus was collected in Queensland, but the target species, C. fasciatus, was not found anywhere. An undescribed genus of Thripidae, Panchaetothripinae, was collected from ornamental Grevillea (var.

  • 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.

Abstract The Tribe Leeuweniini is a group of Old World Phlaeothripinae species that feed and usually induce irregular galls on the leaves of rainforest trees. These thrips all have the last abdominal segment unusually elongate, but this is a variable and homoplastic character state, and the tribe remains ill- defined. Worldwide, 27 species in three genera are now recognised, with five other generic names here included as synonyms of Leeuwenia Karny. From Australia, six species in two genera are recorded here occurring in the eastern rainforests. Four newly described Australian species and their host plants are: Leeuwenia diospyri sp. n. (Diospyros pentamera–Ebenaceae); L. polyosmae sp. n. (Polyosma cunninghamii–Grossulariaceae); L. scolopiae sp. n. (Scolopia braunii–Flacourtiaceae); and L. tetrastigmae sp. n. (Tetrastigma nitens–Vitaceae). The host association of L. convergens Hood is not known, but the sixth species, Neohoodiella jennibeardae Mound and Williams, breeds on two unrelated plants of which the leaves are similar in texture – Ficus coronata (Moraceae) and Rhipogonum elseyanum (Smilacaceae).

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000).

Box 57135-165, Iran. b Department of Plant Protection, College of Agriculture, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran. P. O. Box 7144165186 (Received: 7 September 2015 ; Accepted: 7 November 2015 ) The genus Sericothrips Haliday is reported for the first time from Iran, based on the specimens collected on Lotus sp. and identified as S. bicornis (Karny). This is the third genus of subfamily Sericothripinae in Iran, and illustrations are provided to identify this species. The number of Thysanoptera genera now known from Iran is discussed, as well as the host associations of Iranian Sericothripinae. Key words: Iran, genus, new record, Urmia, thrips. INTRODUCTION Thirteen families of insect order Thysanoptera or thrips are recognized, including 5 known only from fossils (Mound, 2011a). Of the eight living families, the members of family Thripidae have the most close association with plants. In this family, four subfamilies (Dendrothripinae, Panchaetothripinae, Sericothripinae, Thripinae) are recognized. Within Thripinae, most species feed on leaves or pollen although Scolothrips Hinds species exclusively prey on tetranychid mites on various plant leaves (Mound, 2011b; Minaei & Abdolahi, 2015) and Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) , F schultzei (Trybom) and Thrips tabaci Lindeman also sometimes feed on mites despite being important pest species (Mound & Teulon, 1995; Wilson et al., 1996).

  • Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.

  • Subsociality and Female Reproductive Success in a Mycophagous Thrips: an Observational and Experimental Analysis
    Journal of lnsect Behavior, 1Iol. 3, No. 1, 1990 Subsociality and Female Reproductive Success in a Mycophagous Thrips: An Observational and Experimental Analysis Bernard J. Crespi 1'2 Accepted October 17, 1988; revised February 6, 1989 Oviparous females of the haplodiploid, facultatively viviparous thrips Ela- phrothrips tuberculatus (Thysanoptera: Phlaeothripidae) guard their eggs against female conspecifics and other egg predators. The intensity of maternal defense increases with clutch size. Field and laboratory observations indicate that cannibalism by females is an important selective pressure favoring mater- nal care. Experimental removals of guarding females showed that egg guarding substantially increases egg survivorship and that the survivorship of undefended eggs is higher in the absence of nonguarding female conspecifics than in their presence. The fecundity of viviparous females increases with the number of eggs cannibalized. The reproductive success of oviparous females increases with body size and local food density and decreases with local density of breeding females. Social behavior may not have advanced beyond maternal care in Elaphrothrips tuberculatus because, relative to Hymenoptera, capabilities for helping rela- tives are few or nonexistent, and the causes of variation in female reproductive success are not influenced easily by cooperation among females. KEY WORDS: thrips; subsociality; cannibalism; reproductive success. INTRODUCTION Adults of many insect species defend or provision their young (reviewed by Eickwort, 1981; Tallamy and Wood, 1986).
