A substantial breeding popula - tion of this Australian species was found on Hawaii, on the slopes of Mauna Loa just above the tree line at about 2200 m. The adults and first instar larvae were taken from Metrosideros polymorpha [ Myrtaceae ], where they were living within old seed capsules. The trees at this altitude were sparsely distributed and were no more than 6 ft in height. This thrips is common in southeastern Australia, living in the seed capsules of Kunzea ericoides [ Myrtaceae ], and is also recorded from New Zealand, North Island (Mound and Walker 2012).
