Iridothrips mariae Pelikan, 1961: 64 View in CoL . Described from former Czechoslovakia, this species is recorded from several European countries on the aquatic plant Typha View in CoL ( Pelikan 1961; Jenser 2013b). In lacking ocellar setae pair I it is almost unique among species in the Frankliniella View in CoL genus-group. However, this loss is shared with two unrelated Neotropical species of Frankliniella View in CoL , antennata and speciosa ( Nakahara 1997). Some individuals of iridis View in CoL have four pairs of ocellar setae ( Mound et al. 1976), thus the genetic control of these setae among these species is possibly less rigid than usually expected. According to Manfred Ulitzka ( pers. comm. 2018) the sense cones on antennal segments III and IV of mariae View in CoL are always simple.
