Abstract

In J. R. Watson*s recent Synopsis and Catalog of the Thysanoptera of North America (1923), two species of the genus Limothrips are listed, namely, L. angulicornis Jablon and L. cerealium Haliday, both European species with representatives in this country. The first species, angulicornis, was discovered by P. R. Jones in California on Fox-tail grass and described (1912) as L. setariæ. The second species was recorded by Hinds from Massachusetts and Pennsylvania on oats and Festuca pratensis and described (1902) as a new species, L. avenæ. We now have a third species of the genus, Limothrips denticornis Haliday (1836), in America, taken from wheat and from the nests of robins and sparrows.
