Diagnostic features. Body (except antenna) uniformly brown; maxillary stylets V-shaped; one pair of long setae on epimeral region; metanotal sculpture formed by irregular and elongate reticles, with few internal markings; pelta with weak constriction medially and lateral wings basally, few internal markings on sculpture; female spermatheca enlarged medially. Comments. Originally described in the monotypic genus Anoplothrips from female specimens collected from “jaboticaba”, a popular name used for at least nine different species, of which Plinia cauliflora ( Myrtaceae ) is the most common ( Mattos 1983 ). Holopothrips jaboticabae is one of the few species of the genus that commonly lack the third pair of wing-retaining setae in some tergites, with the specimen observed in this study having them only on tergites IV–VII. Some other unusual features are the slightly enlarged fore femora; am, aa and ml usually small or reduced ( Fig. 122 ); and the pelta being constricted medially, giving it a weak bell-like shape ( Fig. 123 ). Material studied. 1 female non-type; Brazil , São Paulo , in Myrcia sp., ix.1956 , at NMNH .
