BAGNALL'S THYSANOPTERA 15 



Allelothrips cincticornis Bagnall 



Allelothrips cincticornis Bagnall, 1932c : 289. 



Only one female remains in Bagnall's collection but a specimen was collected by 

 the present author on Ricinus at the type locality on 3.x. 1963. 



Holotype $. Sudan : Wad Medani, on Xaal grass in Insectory, 26. ix. 1929 

 (W. P. L. Cameron). 



Allelothrips tenuicornis (Bagnall) 



(Text-fig. 1) 



Arhipidothrips tenuicornis Bagnall, 1932c : 293-294. 

 Allelothrips tenuicornis (Bagnall) Stannartl 1961 : 9. 



The present author collected six females, one male and several larvae of this 

 species on grass and groundnuts at various places in Wad Medani, Sudan, in October 

 1963. In life the species is very active and moves about on plants with the antennae 

 waving like a small Hymenopteron. 



LECTOTYPE $. Sudan : Blue Nile Province, Darwish, in 'dura' (Sorg/utm) 

 field, i.ix.1931, (IV. P. L. Cameron). 



Andre wart haia kellyana (Bagnall) 



Rhipidothrips kellyanus Bagnall, lyiqi : 584-585. 

 Andrewarthia kellyana (Bagnall) Mound, 1967b : 47-51 



This is apparently a common Australian species on Eucalyptus. The genus is 

 close to Desmothrips but there is a pair of stout setae near the posterior angles of 

 the pronotum. 



LECTOTYPE $. South Australia : Mount Lofty Ranges, Eucalyptus leucoxy- 

 lon, 22. iv. 1923 (R. Kelly). 



CORYNOTHRIPOIDES Bagnall 

 Corynothripoides Bagnall, 1926a : 170. Type-species C. marginipennis, by monotypy. 



Corynothripoides marginipennis Bagnall 



Corynothripoides marginipennis Bagnall, 1926a : 171-172. 



This remarkable species is apparently only known from a single specimen. The 

 head is produced conically in front of the eyes and there are only two ocelli. The 

 first vein of the fore wing is closely associated with the costa, the costal setae are 

 rather long, and the submedian part of the wing has very reduced microtrichia 

 reminiscent of Allelothrips. 



Holotype $. Sierra Leone : Taninahun, 6.ii.i925 (E. Hargreaves).
