Macrophthalmothrips Karny View in CoL
There are 16 species recognised in this genus from various tropical countries, and Mound (1972b) provided a key to the 13 species that were then available ( Fig. 27 View FIGURES 26 – 31 ). These thrips live on dead branches, and two are known from the tropical north of Australia, M. argus and M. flavafemora .
