Scirtothrips aurantii Faure, 1929: 3 View in CoL .

This Afrotropical species was described from South Africa and is widespread across Africa from Ghana to Kenya, Sudan and South of Arabian Peninsula in Yemen (zur Strassen & van Harten (2006). In common with S. dodonaeae View in CoL and S. mugambii View in CoL this species is one of three Scirtothrips species in which males have a comb of stout setae on the hind femora ( Mound & Stiller 2011), although a fourth such species is described below. Individuals of S. aurantii View in CoL can be recognized easily among these species by having microtrichia on abdominal sternites III–VI accross the median area.

Material studied. Al Baha. 67 females, 10 males, seven larvae, 23.iv.2020, ( BT), Rasool, I .
