“…Caliothrips striatopterus (Kobus, 1892): this species was recorded by Manzari (2004) in an informal newsletter as a cursory report, and so is excluded from the Iranian list (see also Bhatti et al 2009a, Minaei and Aleosfoor 2013). …”

“…The first two species listed above have already been excluded from the Iranian list by Minaei and Aleosfoor (2013), whilst the third is a misidentification of Haplothrips tritici (Kurdjumov) (Minaei and Mound 2008). There is no evidence of the presence of Haplothrips cerealis in Iran (Minaei and Mound 2010b).…”

In Iran, as a result of recent changes in nomenclature 201 species and one species group of the insect Order Thysanoptera, are here listed in 70 genera and five families. In considering species listed previously from this country, the presence of 7 species is considered not confirmed, and 12 species are excluded from the Iranian list. Problems in the study of Iranian Thysanoptera are discussed briefly.

“…Based on the above criteria, forewing images of 16 thrips species were selected for measuring S max , A T and n , and of 22 thrips species for measuring G and D (Mound & Reynaud, 2005; Mound, 2009; Zang et al, 2010; Riley et al, 2011; MAF Plant Health & Environment Laboratory, 2011; Cavalleri and Mound, 2012; Ng and Mound, 2012; Masumoto & Okajima 2013; Minaei and Aleosfoor, 2013; Zamar et al, 2013; Cavalleri and Mound, 2014; Dang et al, 2014; Ng and Mound, 2015; Cavalleri et al, 2016; Lima and Mound, 2016; Mound and Tree, 2016; Wang and Tang, 2016; Goldaracene & Hance 2017). The thrips species considered here encompass three different taxonomic families.…”

Inter-species variation in number of bristles on forewings of tiny insects does not impact clap-and-fling aerodynamics

Flight-capable miniature insects of body length (BL) < 2 mm typically possess wings with long bristles on the fringes. Though their flight is challenged by needing to overcome significant viscous resistance at chord-based Reynolds number (Rec) on the order of 10, these insects use clap-and-fling mechanism coupled with bristled wings for lift augmentation and drag reduction. However, inter-species variation in the number of bristles (n) and inter-bristle gap (G) to bristle diameter (D) ratio (G/D) and their effects on clap-and-fling aerodynamics remain unknown. Forewing image analyses of 16 species of thrips and 21 species of fairyflies showed that n and maximum wing span were both positively correlated with BL. We conducted aerodynamic force measurements and flow visualization on simplified physical models of bristled wing pairs that were prescribed to execute clap-and-fling kinematics at Rec=10 using a dynamically scaled robotic platform. 23 bristled wing pairs were tested to examine the isolated effects of changing dimensional (G, D, span) and non-dimensional (n, G/D) geometric variables on dimensionless lift and drag. Within biologically observed ranges of n and G/D, we found that: (a) increasing G provided more drag reduction than decreasing D; (b) changing n had minimal impact on lift generation; and (c) varying G/D produced minimal changes in aerodynamic forces. Taken together with the broad variation in n (32-161) across the species considered here, the lack of impact of changing n on lift generation suggests that tiny insects may experience reduced biological pressure to functionally optimize n for a given wing span.

“…In particular, Haplothrips kermanensis zur Strassen, 1975 is known to be a specialized phytophage of Haloxylon sp. in Iran (Minaei and Mound, 2008;Minaei and Aleosfoor, 2013), even though it does not occur in galls. Some other species of the genus Haplothrips Amyot et Serville, 1853 are also known as predators (Minaei and Mound, 2008).…”

Aprostocetus (Aprostocetus) essugonjaevi sp.n. (Hymenoptera, Eulophidae, Tetrastichinae) is described and illustrated. Specimens of the type series were collected by E.S. Sugonyaev in 1965 in the Kyzyl Kum Desert in Uzbekistan in galls of the psyllids Caillardia spp. (Hemiptera, Aphalaridae) on white and black saxauls Haloxylon persicum and H. ammodendron (Amaranthaceae), where its larvae were predators of the thrips Haplothrips sp. (Thysanoptera, Phlaeothripidae).
