Dolichothrips fumipennis (Bagnall)

Neoheegeria fumipennis Bagnall, 1921: 360 .

This species is particularly difficult to define. It is known only from the damaged female holotype that was collected in India, in the eastern Himalayas. The pronotal posteroangular setae are exceptionally long, 110–115 microns, the anteromarginals slender and pointed, and the postocular setae long and finely pointed. A single antenna is detached and mounted under a separate coverslip, and seems to have segment VII as uniformly brown as VIII.
