Measurements— holotype in microns : Body length 1450. Head length 75, width 137; Pronotum length 82, width 175. fore wing length 670; antennal segments I–IX length, respectively 25, 37, 50, 50, 42, 42, 15, 12, 15. Etymology. The species is named after the gentilic adjective for Manaus, Amazonas capital, where the holotype was collected in a trap installed in the canopy of the Amazon forest. Material studied. Holotype female: Brazil . Amazonas : Manaus , on YPT at 8m high, ZF2 Tower , Km 14, 10–21.xii.2018 ( J.A.Rafael col.) ( INPA ). Comments. This species is similar to E. amazonicus and E . flavens in general appearance and bicolored tergite IX. However, the new species is unique among Enneothrips in its elongate antennal segments III–IV and threebanded coloration of the fore wing.
