Biltothrips Bhatti, 1973 View in CoL

The only species in the genus was described from India, West Bengal, but has subsequently been reported from Thailand and Malaysia (Ng et al. 2014) as well as the Society Islands in the Pacific Ocean ( Hoddle et al. 2008b). However, no information is available concerning the biology and host plant of this species. Within the Scirtothrips genus-group it is unique in lacking ocellar setae pair I, the usual pair of pre-ocellar setae (Ng et al. 2014).
