Holurothrips

The three species included in this genus comprise one from northern Australia, one from southern Japan and southern China, and H. ornatus Bagnall from Indonesia and Peninsular Malaysia. These species all seem to be associated with rather damp leaf-litter, and are remarkable for the long projection of the head in front of the eyes, with the eyes prolonged ventrally. The fore wings in these species have many duplicated cilia, in contrast to species in the following two genera.
