Octurothrips Priesner, 1931: 93 View in CoL . Type species Octurothrips pulcher Priesner. View in CoL
Known only from Australia, the single species in this genus has been found widely in the inland arid zone of the eastern part of this continent ( Figs 41–42 View FIGURES 33–42 ). Although all of the available specimens are apterae, the species shares many character states with Habrothrips curiosus View in CoL , including the abdominal tergites with a groove down the midline. However, the head is remarkable with greatly enlarged, almost holoptic. compound eyes, with the genae extending forward laterally around the eyes, and the prosternal basantra large and transverse.
