Cartomothrips laughlini Mound & Walker, 1982 View in CoL

This species remains known only from a few specimens beaten from Morgania glabra (Scrophulariaceae) in South Australia, although there is no evidence that this is the plant on which the insect breeds. The males have setae S2 on tergite IX as short as those of browni and neboissi , but both pairs of intermediate setae in laughlini are also short, only a little longer than setae S2. In general structure this species is similar to abrsi , but that is distinguished in both sexes by the bicoloured antennal segments, and the unusually short third seta in the sub-basal series of the fore wing.
