Karnyothrips flavipes, from CSIRO.

Belongs within: Phlaeothripidae.

Karnyothrips is a genus of thrips (poorly distinguished from the closely related Apterygothrips) commonly found on dead twigs (Mound & Marullo 1996).

Characters (from Mound & Marullo 1996): Antennal segments VII and VIII distinct, segment IV with two to four sense cones; maxillary stylets one third to one quarter of head width apart; prosternal basantra well developed; anal setae often 1.5 times as long as tube or longer; often micropterous or apterous, forewings if present weakly constricted medially with few or no duplicated cilia.
