Collembolothrips Priesner

Remarks.

This genus comprises two grass-living species (ThripsWiki 2013) of which Collembolothrips mediterraneus Priesner has been reported from Iran (Bhatti et al. 2009a). It is easily distinguished from other thripine in Iran by the absence of a spinula on both the meso- and metathoracic furca, also the lack of ocelli and wings, and the 2-segmented maxillary palps.
