As in williamsi, this yellow species is unusual in having discal setae on abdominal sternite II. However, the differences between these two species are small, and they are distinguished from each other only by the length of the setae on the ninth abdominal tergite (Mound &amp; Marullo 1996). The specimens examined from Bahia have the setae S1 and S2 on abdominal tergite IX measuring 70 and 75 microns long, respectively.</p><p>NEW RECORD.

In his 1948 key, Moulton distinguished rodeos from gemina on a minor difference he claimed in the distance between the bases of ocellar setae pair III. However, this seems likely to be due to differences in slide preparation, and as no observable differences could be found between these two taxa they are here considered synonyms. Types of both taxa have been compared, and they both have antennal segment II pale, with only the faintest shading at the apex, and segment V weakly shaded in the apical third. Populations in southern Brazil that are otherwise indistinguishable from gemina commonly comprise individuals with antennal segment II uniformly brown, and segment V largely brown with only the basal third yellow. Both forms have been found living in sympatry in the flowers of several plants in Brazil, and further studies are necessary to investigate the possible effects of seasonality and food source on the colouration of these thrips.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/576387B4FFFE7915FF5CFEC4FB8DFD10	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Barrigossi).</p><p>Comments. This species seems to be related to other yellow, grass-living Frankliniella, such as bondari and frumenti . All of these have the head prolonged anteriorly, and relatively slender major setae on the head and thorax. As in bondari, the metanotum lacks campaniform sensilla, and po setal pair I on the head is frequently absent. However, this new species is remarkable in having very short or even minute pronotal aa and am setae. In general, the length of such setae on other Frankliniella species is more or less constant, with exception of some species in the minuta group, which also exhibit weakly developed pronotal anteromarginals and anteroangulars. Moreover, the presence of strongly toothed tergal and sternal craspeda in males is unique in this genus. This structure is also present in females but is less clearly developed, usually with a few stout teeth posterolaterally on tergites and sternites. This new taxon seems to be particularly common in central and southeastern highlands, living in several Poaceae species.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/576387B4FFFE7914FF5CFB2EFEFFFC11	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

It was reported in 1930 from Argentina by Blanchard (according to De Santis et al. 1980), but this record needs confirmation. In Brazil tritici was recorded on wheat in Rio Grande do Sul (Biezanko et al. 1949) but this is possibly a misidentification of some other Frankliniella species. However, Lima (2011) recorded several yellow adults of this thrips on many unrelated plants in northeastern Brazil. This species is readily identified by the swollen pedicel of antennal segment III, and the sparse posteromarginal comb on abdominal tergite VIII, which is absent medially with only a few slender teeth laterally.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/576387B4FFFB7910FF5CFF75FD56FE0F	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The pronotal aa and am setae are longer than half the pronotum length. The hind tibiae are always bicoloured, but the mid-tibiae are variable, usually extensively yellow or shaded brown medially. The species synonymised here was described by Moulton based in two females that were also collected in Espírito Santo. The holotype of longispinosa has been studied, and the rather paler body colour is considered to be due to the individual being teneral and not having achieved the fully mature dark body colour. Small females of varipes have antennal segment III scarcely 2.2 times as long as wide, whereas larger females, and all available females of annulipes, have this segment 2.5 times as long as wide.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/576387B4FFFB7910FF5CFDA4FDE1FC14	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
