Ceratothripoides funtumiae (Bagnall) View in CoL

Physothrips funtumiae Bagnall, 1913 View in CoL ; 292

This species remains known only from the original specimens from Uganda (in BMNH, SMF and USNM), together with 15 females from southern Nigeria (in BMNH). In contrast to the other species placed in this genus, the head bears ocellar setae pair I in the normal position for Thripidae View in CoL , side-by-side; the other four species have these two setae placed irregularly or even one in front of the other ( Fig. 7 View FIGURES 1 – 10 ). Moreover, the metanotal reticulation is almost equiangular or even linear rather than transverse, and paired campaniform sensilla are present ( Fig. 8 View FIGURES 1 – 10 ). Campaniform sensilla are also present near the anterior margin of the mesonotum, and the metafurca bears a spinula. The forewing clavus is similar to that of revelatus View in CoL , with five marginal setae and one discal seta. Antennal segments III–IV are brown with the apex contrastingly yellow (much as in Pezothrips kellyanus View in CoL ), and antennal segment VIII is twice as long as VII. In females, the campaniform sensilla on tergite VIII are anterior to the median setae. In males, tergite IX bears two pairs of moderately stout setae medially ( Fig. 10 View FIGURES 1 – 10 ), and sternites III–VII bear a transverse pore plate at the anterior and three irregular rows of about 20 small pore plates behind this. Of the specimens of this species from Nigeria, four were collected with C. brunneus View in CoL at Ibadan in February, 1964, on “lily flower”.
