چکیده
The detailed study on the morphological variation of male and female thrips was conducted under Stereo Binocular Microscope at R.B.S. College, Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India. The Study revealed that in male antennae 338-345μm long and individual segment measure length (width)20(26), 50(32), 70(23), 62(22), 45(20), 43(19), 14(8), 21(5) and 18(4)μm. While in female Measurement of individual antennal segment length (width)20(28), 51(38), 80(24), 66(22.5), 52(23.5), 46(22), 26(12), 36(6) and 20(4)μm. In male abdomen is 938-958μm long and 294-306μm wide at the apex. In female abdomen is 1.05-1.56mm long and 400-415mm width. Phallus in male is 110-127μm long. In both male and female one pair of spiracles presents each on mesothorax, II and VIII abdominal segments.

متن کاملReproductive Behavior of Echinothrips americanus (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)
Most Thysanoptera possess a haplo-diploid reproductive mode and reproduce via arrhenotoky. Females can mature eggs successively throughout almost their entire life, but in most terebrantian thrips spermiogenesis is complete by adult male eclosion, and testes contain only mature spermatids. In parasitoid wasps this phenomenon of preadult spermiogenesis is described as prospermatogeny. It is uncl...
متن کاملGrass-flower thrips of the genus Chirothrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), with a key to species from Iran
Species of the genus Chirothrips Haliday breed and pupate only within grass florets. Each larva is restricted to a single floret, and adult body size is thus presumably related to floret size. Despite this, some Chirothrips species are distinguished only on states that are related to body size. The validity of some commonly recorded members of the C. manicatus species-group, including C. africa...
