This was the only species included under that generic name at that time, but on the previous page the species was described under the name Mesothrips uzeli, a situation that is now considered to be a lapsus. Many species were subsequently described in Gynaikothrips, 11 of them from Taiwan that are all now placed in other genera. Currently there are 41 species listed in Gynaikothrips (ThripsWiki 2020), all from the Asian tropics, but only two of these are known from Taiwan. These two species are both found widely around the world galling or folding the leaves of Ficus species (Tree et al. 2015). The head is longer than wide with the maxillary stylets retracted only into the basal one third, the pronotum often has twisted transverse striae forming several rounded or oval spots, and the fore tarsal tooth is well-developed in males but smaller or even absent in females.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/F30F465DFFE2FFA6BEF6774CFDB6FE09	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

[lapsus]</p><p>The biological and morphological similarities between Gynaikothrips ficorum and G. uzeli make the separation of these two species difficult. Generally, the pronotal epimeral and posteroangular setae are equally long in G. uzeli, whereas in G. ficorum the posteroangular setae are much shorter than the epimerals. However, there is considerable variation within and between populations (Tree et al. 2015). Sometimes useful for distinguishing these two species is the colour of the fore wings (Mound et al. 1995), hyaline in ficorum but shaded in uzeli, and the presence on tergite III of 5–6 pairs of accessary setae in ficorum but of 7–8 pairs in uzeli .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/F30F465DFFE3FFA6BEF67335FC25FB49	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Described from Taiwan, this species is also known from Japan, Ryukyu Islands (Okajima 2006). The original description by Moulton clearly indicated that the fore tarsus has a minute and blunt tooth (Moulton 1928a), and recent observations has confirmed that this tooth is present in both sexes. Moreover, tergite IX setae S1 and S2 are blunt or expanded. For these reasons this species is here transferred from Liothrips .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/F30F465DFFE5FFA3BEF6752AFB4CFEE0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Takahashi pointed out that this species differs from heptapleurinus in two insignificant characters: colour of the leaf galls and shapes of the mouth cone (Takahashi 1937). Our further studies showed that these two species can be distinguished as follows: heptapleuricola po setae about 0.5 as long as dorsal length of eyes; pronotal am setae shorter than aa setae; pelta without CPS but with setae present laterally. In contrast, heptapleurinus po setae are longer than eyes; pronotal am setae are longer than aa setae; pelta is with CPS but without setae laterally.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/F30F465DFFEBFFA9BEF6710AFB9CFD0D	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Some characters used by Bhatti (1995) to diagnose the genus are variable and show clines, including lengths of antennal sense cones and postocular setae. For example, Liothrips vitivorus shares some character states with Phenicothrips including short postocular setae and widely separated maxillary stylets, but the antennal sense cones are not very long. Despite this problem, Phenicothrips species in general share the following character states: head longer than wide, postocular setae short, maxillary stylets wide apart, antennal segments III &amp; IV with long slender sense cones, fore tarsal absent in both sexes, and the tube shorter than the head.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/F30F465DFFF5FFB0BEF671D5FB08FC66	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
