 VIII, whereas in the males of Bactrothrips these spiracles are greatly enlarged and 

 elongate dorsoventrally.

Although the name hargreavesi has page priority, the present author as first reviser 

 (International Code of Nomenclature, Article 24) has adopted the name associated 

 with the males as females are less easily recognized in this genus. The females 

 recorded by Moulton from Natal (1930b : 416) are not laingi but might represent 

 moultoni. The fore tibiae of laingi are brown, the hind tibiae weakly yellow apically, 

 and the internal pair of epimeral setae are about half as long as the major epimerals.

Bagnall described this species from a single male which has yellow apices to the 

 tibiae, and the inner epimeral seta not enlarged. This male was collected with the 

 holotype male of natalensis Moulton. The single female and the broken specimen 

 referred to by Moulton as laingi apparently represent either moultoni or natalensis.
