Description
Chiraplothrips graminellus (Priesner)
(Figs 28, 51)
Haplothrips graminellus Priesner, 1939: 113
This Mediterranean species was described from Cyprus, is wide spread from North Africa and Mediterranean countries to Middle East (zur Strassen 1990), and extends to Oriental region (India). This species is very close to C. faureanus in general appearance. However, C. graminellus can be distinguished by antennal segments III–V yellow. In contrast, antennal segments III–VI gray to dark in C. faureanus (Priesner, 1931).
Material examined. Al Baha. 29 females from Poaceae, 10 females from Aristida sp., Wadi Turabah, 6.iv.2019, (BT). Three females and two males Aristida sp., Shada Al Aala, 9.iv.2019, (BT).
