Description

A new species of thrips, Eremiothrips negevi n. sp., is described from the Negev, an arid region in southern Israel. The new species differs from its congeners in having nine an­tennal segments, narrowly transverse pore plates on sternites IV–VII of males, and in the absence of drepanae on tergite IX of males. Eremiothrips negevi n. sp. is considered a pest to Sarcocornia fruticosa (Amarantaceae), which is com­mercially grown in greenhouses in southern Israel.
