Genus Hercinothrips Bagnall View in CoL

There are nine species listed in this genus (ThripsWiki 2022), all originally from Africa. The genus is here recorded from China for the first time, and the species involved is known from various tropical countries as well as in greenhouses in the temperate parts of the world. In the key to genera from China (Mirab-balou et al. 2017) Hercinothrips will be distinguished by the presence of two complete rows of setae on the fore wing, the presence of 2-segmented tarsi, and the absence of groups of microtrichia laterally on the second abdominal segment. These character states, together with the reticulate head, will also distinguish the genus from amongst the Thripidae genera recorded from China in the identification system by Zhang et al. (2020).
