Relationships among the 25 known species of this genus (ThripsWiki 2015) were discussed by Mound (1989), together with extensive notes on the structural variation they exhibit. Of these species, 22 are known only from the Americas, mainly the Neotropics, with one species described from Fiji, and two described from Africa. The new species described below is the first record of this genus from Australia.
