cylindrical; 2 urn-shaped; 3-6 oblong elliptical, 3 quite markedly pedicellate, 
4-6 with broader, shorter pedicels; 7 barrel-shaped, truncate at the apex 
and broadly united with 8; 8 sub-conical. Sense cones and bristles short, 
colorless and inconspicuous. Mouth cone blunt, reaching past the middle of 
the prosternum. 
Prothorax small, about .6 the length of the head and, including coxae, 
twice as wide as long. Coxa bears a short but thick and brown bristle, the 
only conspicuous one on the anterior portion of the body, others colorless, 
mostly blunt at apex; a pair on each posterior angle of medium length. 
Pterothorax considerably wider than prothorax. Sides slightly converging 
posteriorly. Wings rather short, membrane reaching but little past the 
middle of the abdomen; colorless except for a decidedly brown area at the 
base of the primaries; primaries markedly narrowed in the middle, fringe 
rather sparse, of medium length, with 6 or 7 interlocated hairs. Legs 
rather slender, except fore tarsi and tibiae, concolorous with the body; fore 
femora but slightly enlarged; fore tarsus with a small, short, acute tooth. 
Abdomen rather long and slender, bristles rather short, light brown to 
colorless and pointed. Tube rather short, terminal bristles but little longer 
than the tube. 
Male not seen. 
Described from four females taken from grass and sedges 
along a small stream at Clayton, Rabun County, Ga. Type in 
the author’s collection. Paratypes in the National Museum and 
in that of the University of Florida. 
Close to H. graminis Hood, but differs in the shorter and 
darker antennae, darker color, smaller prothorax, larger ptero- 
thorax, longer, more slender abdomen, longer intermediate an- 
tennal segments and colorless bristles. 
Haplothrips angustipennis, n. sp. 
Female. Body length about 1.3 mm. (from 1.14 to 1.46). Color almost 
uniformly dark mahogany brown, fore tibiae and tarsi and intermediate 
antennal segments yellowish brown.

Head about a third longer than broad. Cheeks slightly arched, converging 
slightly posteriorly, somewhat roughened and bearing a few short bristles. 
Postocular bristles conspicuous, pointed, nearly as long as eyes. Eyes 
large, occupying nearly half the length of the head, not pilose, facets 
large. Ocelli large, larger than facets of the eyes, brownish yellow, posterior 
pair situated opposite the anterior .4 of eyes and contiguous with their
