Described in the genus Euthrips , this species is widespread from South and Central America into the southern USA. In Brazil, this thrips is commonly found breeding on Hibiscus rosa-sinensis (Malvaceae) flowers. Females have mid and hind tibiae uniformly brown, contrasting to the yellow tarsi. Antennal segments III–IV are long and constricted apically, forming a distinctive neck. The posteromarginal comb on tergite VIII is usually shortly interrupted medially, lacking a few teeth. Males have the mid and hind tibiae largely yellow, and abdominal sternites III–VII each bear a large transverse pore plate.
