Type species: Neohydatothrips latereostriatus John, 1929: 34 , synonym of Sericothrips portoricensis Morgan, 1925: 3 .

As indicated in the Introduction, this genus currently includes species from most parts of the world, although with a large proportion from the New World. The biology of most species remains unknown, although some seem to live in flowers and others on leaves, but there is limited information available on the extent even of this specificity. In the Neotropical region , Mound and Marullo (1996) provided a key to the 13 species recorded between Mexico and Panama. Here we provide a key to the 41 species recorded from the Neotropics, including 14 new species.
