اولين گزارش (Kakothrips dentatus (Thysanoptera: Thripidae از تركيه

The first report of Kakothrips dentatus (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) from Turkey

گونة Kakothrips dentatus Knechtel, 1939 براي نخستين بار از كشور تركيه گزارش مي­شود. تنها يك نمونه از اين تريپس، از روي گونه ­اي Carduus در قونيه جمع آوري شد. ويژگي­هاي ريختي همراه با شكل­ هاي مربوطه ارايه شده ­اند. اين گونه شباهت زيادي به گونه Kakothrips dolosus Berzosa دارد اما از نظر رنگ بند سوم شاخك و موهاي پشت چشمي از هم تفكيك مي­ شوند.

In a molecular phylogenetic study based on 5299 bp from five genetic loci, the family Thripidae has been recovered as monophyletic. However, the subfamily Thripinae is paraphyletic and requires further study to understand its internal relationships (Buckman et al., 2013). A series of ‘genus-groups’ including Frankliniella genus-group has been proposed in Thripinae (Mound & Palmer, 1981). Nine genera including Kakothrips Williams have been allocated to this genus-group (Mound, 2002). Kakothrips consists of 8 species, mostly recorded from Europe (ThripsWiki, 2018). Up to now, two species of Kakothrips, K. priesneri Pelikan and K. robustus (Uzel) (as K. robustus (Westwood)) have been recorded from Turkey (Tunc & Hastenpflug-Vesmanis, 2016). In this paper the third species of the genus is reported from this country.
