Phlaeothripinae

Subfamily information

Various attempts have been made to recognise subgroups within this large and complex subfamily (Priesner, 1960; Bhatti, 1992), however there is little phylogenetic evidence to support most of these subgroups (Buckman et al., 2013). Several evolutionary patterns were recognised by Stannard (1957), and based on these ideas Mound & Marullo (1996) recognised three informal "lineages". The "Haplothrips-lineage" is now considered the Tribe Haplothripini (Mound & Minaei, 2007), but the "Liothrips-lineage" of leaf-feeding species, and the "Phlaeothrips-lineage" of fungus-feeding species, remain weakly defined.

The following family-group names have been proposed for particular groups of species within the Phlaeothripinae:

Adurothripidae Bhatti, 1998:152 [for Adurothrips]

Aleurodothripidae Bhatti, 1998:152 [for Aleurodothrips]

Andrethripidae Bhatti 1992:142 [for Andrethrips]

Chirothripoididae Bhatti 1998:152 [for Chirothripoides]

Habrothripidae Bhatti 1998:152 [for Habrothrips; Octurothrips]

Hyidiothripidae Hood 1938:413 (Bhatti 1992:143) [for Crinitothrips; Hyidiothrips; Machadonia; Preeriella; Smicrothrips]

Idiothripidae Bhatti 1998:252 [for Idiothrips]

Lonchothripidae Bhatti 1988:200 [for Lonchothrips]

Murphythripidae Bhatti 1992:147 [for Murphythrips]

Urothripidae Bagnall 1909:126 (Bhatti 1992:152) [for Amphibolothrips; Ananthakrishnaniella; Baenothrips; Bebelothrips; Biconothrips; Bradythrips; Conocephalothrips; Coxothrips; Stephanothrips; Trachythrips; Urothrips]

Xaniothripidae Bhatti 1992:153 [for Xaniothrips]
