Hercinothrips bicinctus
(Bagnall)
(
Figs 25
,

,

)
This species has been reported from
Brazil
as a pest of banana (
Suplicy Filho & Sampaio 1982
,
Fancelli & Mesquita 2000
), but there are no available specimens to support this record, and recent collections of thrips from banana crops in
Brazil
produced no
Hercinothrips
. The only known specimen of
H. bicinctus
from
Brazil
is in the California Academy of Sciences, collected in
São Paulo
on “night queen” by Dario Mendes. This specimen lacks both antennae, but other character states support the identification as
H. bicinctus
.
