x first became interested in Thysanoptera four years ago, in the fall of 1906, and the first specimen which I ever collected was

a female of AKolothrips bicolor, found hibernating under an old

railroad tie near Champaign, Illinois. Not knowing what the insect was, I brought it to the laboratory for determination. When I found that the species had been discovered for the first time only four years previous, in Massachusetts, and that no records of its capture. had been made since, my interest was aroused and I mounted the speci- i carefully in balsam. I did not dream that the finding of species new to science would be possible, but I felt certain that I could by Careful Collection, add materially to the known geographical distri- bution of the several known forms. With this idea in mind, I began the collection of thrips. From a single slide of a fragmentary speci-

men of AEolothrips bicolor, my collection grew rapidly, until now

lat contains more species from the state of Illinois than are describ-

ed from all North America.

. The study of Thysanoptera is of especial interest not because | the insects are of any great economic importance, but rather because

the group is relatively unknown and the possibilities of interesting

discoveries infinite. This furnishes a mysterious and fascinating

attraction, ana the insects themselves make delicate and beautiful

‘mounts, which are absolutely safe from the attacks of museum pests,

easily filed away, and as nearly permanent as any collection can be. Very little work has been done on the Thysanoptera of North

| | |

America. Scattered papers have appeared now and then in which a few

mew species were described , and no really comprehensive monograph

has ever been written. A paper by Dr. Warren Elmer Hinds, published

in the twentysixth volume of the Proceedings of the United States

National Museum, is the closest approximation we have to a general

work. In it are described all the species known previously to 1902--

thirty seven in number, of which eighteen are new. When we find that

nearly all of these eighteen forms new to science were Collected by one man within a radius ofa two miles from the Massachusetts Agri-

Cultural College, we begin: to realize the deficiency of our knowledge

of the New World species when the vast areas of Western United States

and Central and South America remain unexplored. In 1896, six years before the publication of Hinds' paper des- cribing the Massachusetts species, Miss Alice M. Beach described a

few species from Iowa. And since 1902, the species of California have

been studied by Moulton, Crawford and Daniel; those of Michigan by

Shull, and those of Illinois by Hood. This is all the work that has

been done on the group in North America.

DIRECTIONS FOR THE COLLECTEON OF THYSANOPTERA.

Owing to the small size of these insects and the consequent difficulties of collection and preservation, the few suggestions given below may prove useful to the amateur Thysanopterist. When I first became interested in this group, the lack of full directions for collecting and preserving specimens did much to hinder the pro- gress of my work.* It was largely through experience that I was enabled to tell where to look for specimens, and how to mount them after they have been collected. The following suggestions are con- sequently the results of personal experimentation. They are present- ed with the hope that the beginner will find among them hints which will better direct his attention to places of collection, and which will save him a portion of the needless labor which always falls to the lot of the amateur-- labor which will in: the’future consider ill-directed.

This chapter is naturally divisible into two parts: first the collection of specimens, and secondly, their preservation for future study after they have been brought to the laboratory.

The order Thysanoptera as a whole has an extensive en- vironmental distribution. Species occur in flowers, in grass, or on the leaves and branches of trees; some live in galls, turf, fungi, or moss, or under loose bark,on living or decaying trees; while still others may be found under fallen leaves and in similar decom- posing plant remains. Each of these species, however, is usually

confined to a particular habitat ** or class of habitats, outside

eS ea ee ee ee ae es OS elem emlCl Slee

] * The chapter on this subject by Dr. Uzel inte "Monographie der Ordnung Thysanoptera" was at that time inaxxessible to me, being written in his native tongue, Bohemian,

| **the word habitat has been used by several entomo-

logists as a synonym of distribution. The habitat of a species, in

the sense in which it is used by ecologists, is that particular si-

tuation in which it finds all the conditions necessary to its suc- cessful growth and reproduction. It is the situation where all the ecological factors,- climatic and edaphic, biotic and physical,- are favorable to the species. The habitat of Eurythrips ampliventralis

Hinds is thus turf, and not “Amherst, Massachusetts", as given by its original describer.

of which it normally never occurs*. We thus have one species ** which is found only in phylloxera galls on hickory; another *** only

in galls on pin oak; a third**#* only in flowers of jack-in-the-pul-

w

pit, while a fourth ***** never occurs outside of the moss rringes

ta the bases of our forest trees.

This large variety of situations in which he must search for species makes the collector dependent upon a rather extensive collecting apparatus. The special apparatus which he will employ when collecting in each of these particular habitats will be des- cribed below. The general outfit which he will need at all times con- sists essentially of vials, paper bags, a chisel or stout knife, a d@mall camel's hair brush, and a vasculum or other receptacle in which to carry them.

Vials of about two drams capacity are recomended. The corks should be free from all irregularities which might afford shelter to the specimens and cause them to be subsequently overlooked. Care should be taken also that the corks do not project past the neck of the vial; otherwise any specimens which might cling to the sides of the cork are likely to be crushed against the neck of the vial when the cork is extracted. The observance of these seemingly slight par- ticulars will save many a specimen. Papar bags are used to bring flowers, galls, moss, etc., into the laboratory from the field. When filled, they should be securely fastened by means of a stout paper clip, or a rubber band. Specimens are transferred to vials by means of a small, well-pointed, camel's-hair brush. When picking up the specimens, care should be taken that it,is not injured. This may best be accomplished by lifting it upon the yip of the moistened brush.

# Species which occur commonly under the bark of trees, in galls, or in other secluded situations, may, however, sometimes be taken in sweepings from herbaceous plants. But as very few individuals of a species are ever taken at any one time in such situations, and as all such individuals are long=winged, we conclude that they are merely engaged. in the dissemination of their species, and are in search of suitable places for the deposition of eggs. Trichothrips americanus

Hood furnishes an excellent example. This species is normally short-

winged, spending its life under the loose bark,, decaying, fungus- grown stumps, where it would have no use for wings even if it had

them. In early Summer, long-winged individuals occur. It is this gen- eration upon which the species is dependent for any extension of its

distribution. On a sultry afternoon when the barometer is low and her- alding the approach of a strom (a time when insects are unusually ac- tive) a few "sweepings" with a suitable net will frequently yield an individual or two of the long-winged form of this species. Dr. Uzel

terms the macropterus fomales of such species the "femininde dissem-

inatus", showing that he fully appreciated their significance.

#* Liothrips caryae Fitch. ### Phloéothrips sp. nov. axee Hoterothrips arisaemaéé Hood.

#eeee% Lissothrips muscorum Hood.

The brush should never be brought directly down upon the insect.

I have employed two general methods for making miscellaneous

extensive collections,-- collections in which quantity of material, rather than accuracy of ecological data, is desired. The first con-

sists in "sweeping" grasses and other herbaceous plants with a strong

sweep-net of fine mesh. The bag of this net should ne of India linen

and attached to the ring with a copper wire. The ring should be of thick galvanized iron wire and soldered into a ferrule to which a strong handle is attached, This net may be used to great advantage at all times, and will yield more species than any other single me- thod. -- The second method is as follows:- a sheet of canvas about a yard square is sewed in the form of a bad, open at one end. Two sticks exactly equal in length to the diagonals of the bag are fastened together at the middle by means of a single nail, to form an X. These sticks are inserted into the bag, and their ends spread out and secured in corner pockets, formings a piece of apparatus sufficiently rigid and light to be held by one hand in any desired

position. By means of a stout stick, Thrips may be jarred on to it

from the leaves andbranches of trees and shrubbery. The material so secured is usually more valuable than that obtained in any other way, owing no doubt to the slight amount of attention which has been de- voted to the collection of tree-inhabiting species.

Species which occur under the loose bark on living or dead

trees may be secured by prying off the bark and either sifting it with a sieve of large mesh, or by examining both the loosened bark and the exposed surface of the tree* with a hand lens. Species

collected under bark during the Winter are usually short-winged,

while those taken in the summer are usually long-winged. Winter col- lecting will yield all those species which pass the Summer in such

Situations, and in addition, will furnish those which are there mere=- ly for hibernation and which seek other habitats upon the advent of

warm weather in the Spring.

Galls, flowers, or fungi which contain Thrips may be brought to the laboratory in small paper Rags and pulled or cut apart over a background of white paper. Nymphs or"pupde"## are more common-

| ly found in galls than are adults. It seems that the nymphs when

* My experience in collecting from such situations shows that

a vastly larger number of individuals cling to the tree than to the

bark, If the tree is loose or disposed in flakes, they appear always to be found on the ventral surface toward the center of the tree, The explanation which suggests itself is simple: Thrips in search for protective quarters crawl about over the side of the tree and when a

| suitable opening in the bark is encountered, «squeeze into the cre- vice until their body comes into close contact with the opposed

surfaces. As all such species are flattened dorso-ventrally, they

Cannot turn over, and as a consequence must remain in the position

in which they enter the crevice. We might carry this even further, and reason that the hibernating species crawl up from the base of the tree and do not descend from the crown, because they are always found below the area of attachment of the bark affording them shelter.

*#% Insects with an incomplete or direct metamorphosis do not, strictly speaking, have a pupal stage. The term is a convenient one,

however, in this connection,

when they have about attained their complete development, enter the gall in order to safely pass the quiescent “pupal” stage. Nymphs or

“pupae” so taken may usually be reared with little difficulty to the

adult stage by putting the galls into a vial or bottle, and taking

care merely to preserve the necesarry humidity.

Species which occur under fallen jJeaves, in decomposing plant remains, or in turf, may be collected in any one of three ways. (1) The material to be searched may be brought to the laboratory and carefully pulled apary and scrutinized over a sheet of white paper. (2) Or it may be sifted in the field, and only the siftings brought in to be searched. (3) This method is @ more exhaustive one, and has been employed with marked success by Professor Antonio Berlease, an Italian arachnologist.* It is especially valuable for the collection of hibernating species. It consists essentially in usuing a specially constmucted tin tank which is open at one end and has a small hole in the middle of the opposite end; within this tank is fitted a tin fun- nel in such a way that a space is left surrounding it which can be filled with water. Across the top of the tank is supported a screen, on which is placed the debris which is supposed to contain Thrips. Water is placed in the outside portion of the tank, and a receptavle of some sort is put under the opening of the funnel. When heat is ap- plied to the wtter of the outside tank, the insects, mites, and other arthropods in the debris are incited to activity, and they scurry

about, falling into the funnel which directs them into the recepta-

cle at its lower end. The specimens may be collected alive in a dry

| Vial, or-in alcohol. For es the former metnod is recomended.

The Important Injurious Species of the State of Illinois. Small and apparently insignificant though the thrips are, they

Cannot be disregarded from an economic standpoint. Only a few spe=- cies, to be sure, must be Considered as decidedly injurious, but these are widespread in their distribution and difficult to con- trol. Doubtless much damage, really caused by these tiny foes, is ascribed to more Conspicuous but less injurious insects.

Before any preventive or remedial measures are to be taken, then, one should make sure that he is really dealing with a species of thrips. This is not at all a difficult task if one is provided with a strong hand lens or a compound microscope, for these insects are

the only ones with a delicate fringe on all four wings, and with tar-

si or feet that have at their tips a proturusitle bladder-like or- gan which, though made slightly adhesive bt a secretion from glands in the foot, depends largely upon suction for its successful opera-= tion.

These Characters, though the only perfectly satisfactory ones,

are not visible to the naked eye; and so the farmer or gardener will

find it necessary to familiarize himself with their general appear- ance. This is not very difficult, for thrips are exceedingly abundant in Summer, fairly swarming in many species of flowers in our gardens and greenhouses, and on our farms. If almost any flower be carefully examined, minute, linear, slender insects, yellowish or brownish in Color and about one a a eoeone of an inch in length, will be seen running about and iaubine, in a frantic attempt to escape. These are

thrips. Folded along their backs while they are at rest are two pairs

of delicate, linear wings, fringed around their edges with numerous

fine cilia or hairs. Weak though these wings appear, they are really

Capable of supporting the insect in sustained flight. In feeding, the thrips usually move parallel to the veins of

the leaf. The green parts of the plant, chiefly, are punctured by thd lacerating, spine-like mandibles which are completely enclosed within a beak-like mouth-cone attached to the ventral or under surface of © head; the sap is then withdrawn by suction. The emptied plant cells become white and shrivelled as they dry up, and as the insect moves on to fresh cells, the traces of its feeding are shown by irregular

streaks of dry, whitened cells. Behind them, as they feed, they leave

a row of dark colored dots of excrement, which are sometimes mistaknn for eggs. There is thus no chewing of the plant tissues; the cells

are simply punctured and their juices removed, the damage appearing

in the form of whitish streaks and spots.

If a female of one of our common plant-loving species be Care- fully watched while it feeds, it may often be seen to deposit an egg. This is done by means of a hollow, saw-like ovipositor composed of four Closely fitting plates. It is analogous to the sting of the honey bee, and is inserted through the plant epidermis, usually in a place where the mouth parts have first weakened the tissue or broken en- tirely through it. An egg is Conducted through the cavity between the plates and deposited beneath the epidermis. The softest and ten-

derest parts are always chosen for deposition, for their is danger of

the ovipositor getting caught if the tissue is hard. Also it is ne- cessary during egg developement that the surrounding tissue be flexi-

ble and moist, for the egg covering is elastic and the embryonic

thrips within increases in size very noticeably before the larva is= sues. After about four days, the young larva issues from the egg and feeds voraciously on the plant juices for a period varying in length

from about four days to more than three weeks. It then seeks some |

secluded spot, often below the surface of the soil, and goes into a pupal or resting stage. From this the adult insect may emerge in as

‘short a period as two days, or as long a period as several months,

depending on the species in question and the time of the year. There are always four stages-- egg, larva, pupa, and adult, covering from one. to many wooueoee and in all except the first, great damage may be done to the food plant by the extraction of sap. As each female normally lives for several weeks, and during all this time is busily engaged in depositing eggs which successively produce other females, the increase in numbers is very rapid and the injury to the food plant great.

In Illinois, we fortunately have only four or five species of thrips which are decidedly injurious. Each of these will be briefly discussed in turn.

THE ONION THRIPS. (Thrips tabaci Lindeman).- This is me of the most injurious species of thrips known, because of its great numbers and wide distribution. It is quite active, about one thirty-second of an inch long, and of 3 Pale yellowish color. tsp ttacks are largely confined to onions, Cabbages, enctatosnhonse Plants.

A spray of kerosine emulsion is recomended as the cheapest and most effective method of controlling this pest. It should be used at the strength of one part of the stock to ten parts of water.*

If the plants attacked are in a greenhouse, fumigation will of-

ten prove more satisfactory. The use of hydrocyanic-acid gas is re-

Comended. This gas is exceedingly poisonous, and should not be em-

ployed until one has thoroughly familiarized himself with its use.

* Full and detailed directions for preparing and using this spray are given in Circular 80, Bureau of Entomology, U.S. Department of Agriculture. It may be obtained upon application to the Secretary of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.

tat ‘s

The work must be Conducted at night, and the plants should have dry

foliage. Use from 0.01 to 0.05 grams of Potassium cyanide per cu-

bic foot for from two hours to all night, the strength and length of exposure varying according to the tightness of the house anda the kinds of plants treated, as there is considerable difference between various plants to their resisting power to this gas.”

THE WHEAT THRIPS. (Euthrips tritici Fitch.).- This insect is a one thirty-second of an inch in length, and is of a pale orange yellow color. It is the most abundant species of eHPice in the state, occuring on almost every species of flowering plant. It is not quite as injurious as the Onion Thrips, however, for its attacks afte less confined to cultivated plants; it is very common in many kinds of flowers and on grasses and Cereals.

By far the greatest amount of damage seems to be done to straw- berries, in the blooms of which they swarm, and by their punctures of the essential parts of the flower they prevent its fertilization and the consequent developement of the fruit. This failure of bloon, though perhaps also produced by other insects and in other ways, is known to growers as “buttoning". The most serious injuries have been reported ftom Florida and Illinois. In dry seasons, the strawberry crop has been reduced to one third in some sections.

The best treatment, as in the case of the Onion Thrips, scoems

to be a spray of kerosine emulsion. "Rose-leaf Insecticide"-- a high

grade extract of tobacco-- is another excellent practical remedy

when used with 48 parts of water.

THE GRASS THRIPS. (Anaphothrips striatus Osborn.)-- This species

is about the same size as the two preceding, and of a pale yellow

Color, with a shading of black. Its injury is entirely confined to

es

grasses. The most Conspicuous effects of its work are the dead tops of June grass and timothy, known commonly as “Silver top" or "White top". This is caused by the abstraction of sap from the tender axial stems, thus cutting off the supply of sap to the head, which there-

fore fails to bear seed. In the case of wheat, rye, oats, etc., this

and the preceding species suck the milk directly from the growing kernels in the ear and produce an abortive condition of the head.

As the female hibernates above ground, burning in early spring will destroy large numbers of them. As the damage is most severe on worn out meadows, fields, and lawns, fertilization and early har- vesting will also be effective.

THE GREENHOUSE THRIPS. (Heliothrips hdémorrhoidalis, and H. femoralis.)-- These species do little damage in this state, but in

the east and in the Old World their injuries are of prime importance. The same remedies may be used as recomended for the Onion Thrips. BOth these greenhouse species are slightly larger and stouter than

the preceding species, and ere nearly black in color.

Key to the Sub-Orders.

SUB-ORDER TEREBRANTIA,

In this sub-order belong all the more active species of Thysanoptera, and those which are of the greatest economic import- ance. They are usually smaller than the Tubulifera, are often quite highly colored. The Onion Thrips, the Pear Thrips, the Greenhouse Thrips, the Tobacco Thrips, and a host of other injurious species belong here. Because of the economic importance of this group, they have been more extensively studied than their relatives the Phloeo- thripidae, this resulting frequently in a multiplication of scienti=- fic names, a confusion of the species, and a consequent difficulty of taxonomic work.

The Terebrantia are divisible into two distinct families, as follows:

A. Antennae always nine-segmented. Wings of both pairs broad and rounded at tips; fore wings with cross veins. Ovipositor curved upward.... Family AEOLOTHRIPIDAE.

AA. Antennae usually 6- 8 segmented, very rarely 9- segmented. Wings narrow and pointed at tips; fore wings without cross veins. Ovipositor curved down- WArdB.eeee Family THRIPIDAE.

Family AKOLOTHRIPIDAR.

This family includes the most primitive Thysanoptera known, as is shown by the nine-segmented antennaéé, the broad veined wings, the absence of antennal sense-cones, etc. They are all moder- ately active species, and feed almost entirely in the flowers of plants,

the usual hook-like appendage. Wings broadened distally, where they May be twice as broad as at basal third. Wings of first pair cross- banded in both the known species. Ninth abdominal segment of male

not prolonged at the posterior angles into hooked, clasping organs.

I have preferred to extend the description of Qrothrips to in- Clude the species described below rather than to erect a new genus for it, for the reason that the differences between my specimens and - Moulton's diagnosis may possibly be more apparent than real,and due | partly to inaccuracies of observation and description. I am led to this conclusion by the statement in the original description that

all the tibiae of Qrothrips are armed. A comparison of Moulton's

figure (Pl. I, fig. 1) with that given by Uzel on Tab. V, fig. 38

of his Monographie will show that such is not the case.

Described from several specimens of both sexes taken in sweepings by Mr. Charles A. Hart at Monterey and Matamoras, Mexico, at Brownsville, Texas, and at Odin and DuBois, Illinois, in June and | July.

This species may | eeetaly be distinguished from all other eastern A®olothripidde by its pale coloration and by the greater num- ber of segments in the maxillary palpus. In at least one of these respects, however, it resembles Orothrips kellogii Moulton, described from California. But it differs strongly from that species in that the maxillary palpi are eight- instead of seven-segmented, the labial palpi are four- instéad of five-segmented, and the fore wings are greatly expanded apically and twice as wide near apex as at basal ‘third. These points of distinction may also be noted by a comparison with Moulton's figures. The strong spines on the posterior prothora- cic margin of kellogii are greatly reduced in flavus,being no longer than the discal ones; the brown cross band at the middle of the fore wings is nearly twice as wide in flavus and frequently shows a ten- dency to form two cross hands by the appearance of a pale, central area; the ventral sensory areas on the fifth and sixth segments of the antennée are slit-like in flavus and circular in kellogii; and the “ring vein" of the fore wings seems in Moulton's species to be armed with slightly longer spines.

CALOTHRIPS gen. nov. (wadAds, beautiful; OPty .)

Head about as long as wide; vertex swollen, produced, overhang-

ing and slightly surpassing base of antennde. Eyes prominent, pro-

truding. Antennéé eight-segmented; style much shorter than segment ; all sanse Cones simple. Maxillary palpi three-segmented. Protho-

rax distinctly longer than head and nearly as long as wide, broadest

‘near base; posterior angles with two long spines, all other spines | small and scarcely visible. Wings often lacking; when present, moder- | ately broad, without color pattern; fore pair with two longitudinal

| veins reaching nearly to tip; hind pair with a simple median vein;

anterior margins of fore wings set with very long and slender spines

which are scarcely distinguishable from the fringe.

Typs-- Calothrips cinctus sp. nov.

This genus is suggestive of Aptinothrips, Euthrips, and Rhaphi-

| dothrips. It strongly resembles the first in the produced vertex and

| in that the antennal sense Cones are simple, as in Chirothrips, Limo-

thrips, Heterothrips, Parthenothrips, and certain species of Helio-

thrips; but it differs most noticeably from the two described species

of Aptinothrips in the much longer and stronger dorsal bristles. In

this last respect, it approaches Euthrips, but in that genus the an-«

tennal sense cones are U- or V= shaped, the prothorax is wider, and

the vertex is not swollen or produced. Its resemblance to Rhaphidothri-

| ps lies in a similarity of structure of the apical antennal segments,

in the presence in both genera of two prominent bristles at the hind

angles of the prothorax, and in the larger size of the apical abdominal

bristles; it differs from that genus, however, in that the sixth an-

Described from several specimens of both forms taken at Matamoras, Mexico, and Brownsville, Texas by Charles A. Hart; and at Grand Tower, Illinois, by Charles A. Hart and the writer.

| The short winged form of this species is very striking and characteristic. In the field, the pale transverse band separates it

at once from all members of its family with which it could possibly

_be confused. And in the laboratory, the microscope shows simple an-

_tennal sense’cones, a broadly rounded produced vertex, long abdomin- al bristles on the last two segments, and two pairs of long bristles on the posterior angles of the prothorax-- a combination of charact- ers hitherto unknown.

Described from two macropterous males, taken by the writer on

a rotting poplar stump, near Baldwin, Michigan, August 17, 1908.

The peculiar Coloration of this insect distinguishes it at once from all other species of its genus. Its resemblance, however, both in Coloration and structure, to the species of Acanthothrips is

Striking. The principal characters of that genus are, of course, the

presence in both sexes of a subapical tooth on the fore

the urn- or vase-like form of the intermediate antennal

Phideothrips vittatus, though lacking the femoral tooth

thrips, possesses an antenna strikingly similar to that

cornis Reuter, and in coloration is strongly suggestive

vittatus m. It might be said that if the division between Fhioeothrips

femora, and segments.

of Acantho- of A. nodi-

Haliday and Acanthothrips Uzel were based on any other charactor

than the presence or absence of an acute tooth on the anterior femora,

rather this insect would fall in the latter,than in the former

genus.
