Neohydatothrips angelorum Valenzuela-García et al.

Neohydatothrips angelorum Valenzuela-García, Retana-Salazar, Johansen-Naime, García-Martínez, Gallegos-Morales & Carvajal-Cazola, 2012: 51 .

Female macroptera. Colour: body bicoloured, head, pterothorax and tergites II–III and VII–VIII brown, tergites IV–VI yellow but apparently with suffused brown area medially, pronotum and tergites IX–X yellow, fore wing with three pale bands, antennal segments I–III yellow, IV–V brown with base yellow, VI–VIII brown; tibiae and fore and mid femora yellow, hind femora yellow with apex brown.

Structure: Occipital apodeme not confluent with posterior margin of eyes, ocellar area transversely striate; pronotum transversely striate with indistinct blotch; mesonotum and anterior part of metanotum closely striate; metasternal plate with shallow emargination; fore wing second vein with 2 setae; comb of microtrichia incomplete on tergites II–VI, complete on VII–VIII; tergite IX apparently with 2 pairs of mid-dorsal setae.

Material studied. None.

Comments. This species was based on a single female collected from beans in Nayarit, Mexico. Judging from the description, it is similar to N. paraensis and Neohydatothrips hemileucus, from which can be distinguished by the indistinct pronotal blotch and unusual yellow abdominal tergites IX– X. Although the authors state that the anterior third of the pronotum has transverse reticulation, the image they published seems to indicate broader reticles on the pronotum as in N. hemileucus .
