A new species of Helionothrips from China (Thysanoptera, Panchaetothripinae).

ABSTRACT: Helionothrips lushanensissp. n. is described from China. The new species is characterised by the head entirely dark brown, antennal segments I-VIII almost uniformly yellowish brown and III-IV strongly vasiform, metascutellum without produced posterior margins, and male has no pore plate on the abdominal sternites.

A trichodorus (triplonchida: trichodoridae) nematode from thrips (thysanoptera: panchaetothripinae).

Project description:A thrips insect Caliothrips sp. (Thysanoptera: Panchaetothripinae) from persimmon fruit (Ebenaceae: Diospyros sp.) from an unknown origin, possibly Asia, was intercepted in a passenger bag in November 2012 at the Peace Arch Border Crossing from Canada to Blaine, WA, by a USDA-APHIS-PPQ port inspector. Nematodes were attached to the abdomen of the female insect and sent to us in saline. Seven nematodes (five females, two males) were measured and these and others were processed for permanent slides. An adult female and a female juvenile were prepared for PCR. Morphologically these nematodes belonged to the Trichodorus sparsus group, and the 28S rDNA D2-D3 sequence showed greatest similarity to Trichodorus paragiennensis (94%) and T. giennensis (93%), with greatest morphological similarity to the latter species. Among other morphological differences, the innermost uterus width is wider than in related species. Trichodorus spp. are normally found in soil, so this is the first population seen in the atypical habitat of an insect. Morphological and molecular characteristics of Trichodorus sp. are presented, but a putative new species name is not currently advisable because of relatively poor condition of specimens. Ecological associations are also discussed.

Siamothrips balteus, a new species of Scirtothrips genus-group from China (Thysanoptera, Thripidae).

Project description:The third species of the genus Siamothrips Okajima, Siamothrips balteussp. n., is described from China. The new species is characterised by the abdominal tergite II uniformly brown, III-VII with a brown area medially but pale on lateral thirds, tergite VIII smooth medially, tergite X with 3-4 rows of microtrichia medially, and abdominal sternite VII with one pair of discal setae laterally. A key to the three species has been constructed and is presented here.
