Glenothrips Priesner

( Figs 112 , 132 )

Glenothrips Priesner, 1921: 19 . Type species: Cryptothrips biuncinatus Karny , by monotypy.

Currently this genus includes a single species that has been collected near Bogor in Java, Indonesia, in leaf galls on Conocephalus and Schefflera . However, it is possible that some of the species currently placed in Xylaplothrips that are known from leaf galls should instead be referred to this Haplothripini genus.

Diagnosis: Head longer than wide ( Fig. 132 ); eyes normal, without enlarged ommatidia, postocular setae almost as long as eye; stylets retracted to postocular setae, more than 0.3 of head width apart, maxillary bridge well-developed; antennae 8-segmented, III with 3 sensoria, IV with 4; pronotum with 4 pairs of major setae developed, am reduced, notopleural sutures complete; basantra present; mesopresternum reduced medially; sternopleural sutures absent; fore tarsal tooth present in both sexes; fore tibia with small tooth at inner apex in both sexes ( Fig. 112 ); fore wings constricted medially, with duplicated cilia; pelta triangular; tergites II–VII with 2 pairs of wing-retaining setae; tube with straight sides, shorter than head, anal setae longer than tube; male sternite VIII without pore plate.
