Bamboosiella australis (Pitkin) View in CoL

Antillothrips australis Pitkin 1977, p 54 View in CoL .

Known only from a few specimens of both sexes taken in eastern Australia (SE Queensland, and NSW near Sydney and Bateman’s Bay), this species closely resembles B. cingulata View in CoL apart from the differences noted in the key above.
