Paracholeothrips gracilis Crespi et al., 2004: 272 View in CoL

This elegant slender species is known only from the type series taken at Meekathera, Western Australia. The Acacia View in CoL host was given as? citrinoviridis, although it was never satisfactorily identified. The fore tarsal tooth is particularly long and slender, and the fore tibia also has a spur at the inner apex. The prosternal basantra are small or even absent in both sexes, but in females the ferna are massive, elongate with the median margins closely parallel ( Fig. 8 View FIGURES 7–12 ). In males, the ferna are similar in shape but not so elongate, and sternite VIII does not have a pore plate .
