Described from Sumatra, Indonesia (T. palmi<\/i>), Sudan (T. leucadophilus<\/i>), India (T. gossypicola, C. aureus, T. gracilis<\/i>) and Taiwan (T. clarus<\/i>).<\/p>\n

Distribution: Originated from Southeast Asia T. palmi <\/em>is common all over Asia. It locally occurs in northern Australia and it is widespread in many tropical countries, including the Caribbean region and southern Florida. In different European countries T. palmi<\/em> is a quarantine-listed pest species that is frequently intercepted at ports of entry on plants and produce imported from the tropics. It is not present in Europe, though a small number of populations have been found and eradicated (in the Netherlands, Portugal, Germany).<\/p>\n

In various tropical countries T. palmi <\/em>is a major crop pest. It is an invasive pest species that has been widely transported around the tropics and sub-tropics by international trade in plants and plant products. T. palmi<\/em> \u2013 also called ‘Melon Thrips’ \u2013 is highly polyphagous with a particular prevalence on Cucurbitaceae and Solanaceae in commercial production. It is feeding and breeding on leaves and in flowers of its host plants. Furthermore, it is a vector of Tospo Viruses (WSMV, GBNV).<\/p>\n

Annotation: T. palmi<\/i> was named originally after Dr Palm and should not be called ‘Palm Thrips’.<\/p>\n
