Caliothrips phaseoli (Hood) View in CoL

( Figs 11 View FIGURES 2–17 , 50 View FIGURES 34–51 , 83 View FIGURES 77–91 , 96 View FIGURES 92–106 , 122 View FIGURES 121–138 )

This species ( Fig. 122 View FIGURES 121–138 ) is considered a pest in Brazil, and is recorded from several crops, such as soybeans ( Fig. 130 View FIGURES 121–138 ) ( Table 2). Adults exhibit some variation in wing colour – the fore wing has base, median and apical brown bands, but the median band is pale brown in some specimens from North and Central America and uniformly brown in specimens from South America ( Wilson 1975). The dark basal area of the fore wing is also often weak although always present ( Fig. 83 View FIGURES 77–91 ). Fore wing second vein has six setae ( Fig. 83 View FIGURES 77–91 ), and antennal segments III–V are pale with brown apical halves. Male is similar to female, but abdominal sternites III–VII have long transverse pore plate. Structurally very similar to C. nanus , these species are distinguished in the key above. C. cinctipennis has previously been recorded in Brazil, but Lima (1938) concluded that this was a misidentification of C. phaseoli .
