Description

Glyptothrips interior (Stannard, 1955)

(Figs 41–46)

This mostly yellow species is described as one of the lightest Glyptothrips species, being brown only on tips of antennae and tube, wing pads and median spots on abdominal tergites (Fig. 41). It also has the postocellar and occipital setae thickened and capitate (Fig. 42), a trait only seen elsewhere in G. claviger and G. floridensis, two mostly dark brown species. Glyptothrips interior is also one of few species in the genus with a reduced number of sense cones on antennal segment IV (Table 2), being differentiated from the others by its light colouration and capitate occipital and pterothoracic ventrolateral setae.

Known wing forms: micropterous.

Specimens studied. Paratype ♂; USA, Illinois, Monticello, Allerton Estate, woodland debris, 14.iv.1942 (M. O. Farrar), at INHS.
