Scolothrips pallidus Beach

Description

Scolothrips pallidus (Beach)

Thrips pallida Beach, 1896: 226

Described from Iowa, the significance of this species remains unclear. Variation in body colour within a series of commercially reared sexmaculatus females from California is discussed below, and pallidus is possibly no more than a high temperature form of sexmaculatus.
