Liothrips Uzel

Description

Liothrips Uzel

Liothrips Uzel, 1895: 261. Type species Phloeothrips setinodis Reuter.

Closely related to Teuchothrips, as indicated above, more than 250 species are listed worldwide in this genus (Mound, 2008). Five of these were described from Australia, but each of them remains effectively unknown. L. brevifemur Girault was based on a single specimen that is destroyed under the extreme edge of a cover slip, and is unrecognisable from the original description (Girault, 1928a: 2). Adiaphorothrips pallicornis Karny, known from a single male, was referred to Liothrips by Crespi et al. (2004: 124), and L. priesneri Karny, L. soror (Hood) and L. tenuis Hood, each known only from single females, are listed in Liothrips by Mound (1996).
