“…That list included 175 species together with a historical review of the Thysanoptera. Also included was information on bionomics, distribution and a discussion of problems associated with the effective sampling of this group of insects in the field (Hood 1934;Mound and Palmer 1992;Bournier 1993;Mound and Marullo 1996;Sanchez-Monge et al 2011). Laurence Mound has published extensively on the taxonomy of the Thysanoptera worldwide and has been at the forefront of developing our understanding of the phylogenetic, and hence systematic, relationships within the Thysanoptera (Mound and Palmer 1983; Sampling sites (Figure 1).…”

“…These species were presumably living on grasses and herbaceous plants near mango trees or came from the surrounding vegetation of the mango orchard. It is well known that weeds are usually hosts of numerous species of thrips and other insects, serving as a temporary refuge [ 49 , 50 ]. For example, species in the genera Arorathrips , Bregmatothrips and Plesiothrips , are known to breed only on grasses (Poaceae) [ 51 ].…”

Colored sticky traps for monitoring phytophagous thrips (Thysanoptera) in mango agroecosystems, and their impact on beneficial insects

et al. 2022

The capture efficiency of six colored sticky traps (blue, green, orange, purple, white, and yellow) was tested in mango agroecosystems of Mexico with the purpose to: (i) document the diversity of Thysanoptera; (ii) determine the attraction of phytophagous thrips; (iii) assess the impact of these traps on beneficial insects; and (iv) assess the relationship between the density of Frankliniella thrips captured on traps and those found in the inflorescences. The use of colored sticky traps has revealed a great diversity of thrips and beneficial insects in the mango agroecosystem. A total of 16,441 thrips were caught on sticky traps throughout the sampling period, of which 16,251 (98.8%) were thrips adults and 190 (1.2%) larvae. Forty one species of thrips were collected either from sticky traps or from inflorescences. Of these, 32 species feed either on leaves or flowers. Frankliniella cephalica, F. gardeniae and F. invasor, were the most abundant species. Scirtothrips citri and S. manihoti were also captured among other phytophagous thrips. The white trap captured significantly more Frankliniella species and also had the smallest capture of beneficial insects. Yellow traps were the most attractive for Scirtothrips species, with low detrimental effects on insect pollinators, although high impact on natural enemies. Thrips species captured on sticky traps showed a low and non-significantly correlation with respect to the density of thrips in mango inflorescences. Although sticky traps did not predict the density of Frankliniella populations in mango inflorescences, the study represents a substantial progress in the use of color traps in mango agroecosystems. Colored sticky traps would be a good option for monitoring mango thrips to detect them at earlier stages of infestation to implement management tactics and avoid the building-up of thrips populations.

“…En Cuba, G. sepium ha sido relacionada con poblaciones de Frankliniella schultzei (Trybom), 1910 (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) (Jiménez et al, 2006) y F. insularis (González et al, 2011). En México se ha reportado G. sepium como planta hospedera del trips depredador Franklinothrips vespiformis (Crawford, 1909) (Thysanoptera: Aeolothripidae) que ha sido reportado como depredador de otras especies de artrópodos que incluyen larvas y adultos de la especie de trips Selenothrips rubrocinctus (Giard, 1901) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) (Sánchez, 1999).…”

Resumen: Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.) (Fabales: Fabaceae) es utilizada como cerca viva y forraje para ganado vacuno en Panamá. Presenta flores que constituyen albergue y alimentación para diversas especies de insectos, principalmente de trips (Thysanoptera) que se asocian como plaga a cultivos de la familia Cucurbitaceae y Solanaceae, lo que justifica el presente estudio. El estudio se realizó en el pacífico de Coclé en Panamá durante el periodo lluvioso de diciembre de 2021, hasta el período seco de marzo de 2022, que se asocia con la floración de las plantas. Para ello se eligieron 10 localidades en un tramo de 103 kilómetros donde se encuentran plantas de G. sepium establecidas como cercas vivas, seleccionando en cada localidad un árbol del cual se tomaron cuatro flores, que fueron introducidas en viales de vidrio con alcohol al 70 % para colectar los trips presentes cada quince días. Los especímenes capturados de trips fueron preparados en laminas fijas para su respectiva identificación con claves dicotómicas disponibles y se procedió al registro de los especímenes capturados para obtener el total y sexo de estos. Los resultados de los muestreos indican la presencia de poblaciones de Frankliniella insularis (Franklin) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) en las flores de G. sepium. Esta especie es considerada plaga de especies de las familias Fabaceae y Rutaceae que como resultado del cambio climático y la expansión geográfica de sus plantas hospederas como es el caso de G. sepium, podría potencialmente adquirir un estatus de plaga primaría en agroecosistemas y cultivos sensitivos a la seguridad alimentaria en diferentes regiones del país.
