The Swedish Thripidae (Thysanoptera) – with additional notes on wetland thrips
The Swedish fauna of thrips (Thysanoptera) within the family Thripidae is reviewed in this study. Thripidae is one of the most diverse thrips families, containing many economically important pest species, as well as species of ecological significance. The current investigation updates the knowledge of this family in Sweden, detailing the distribution, ecological associations, and providing the first comprehensive checklist for Swedish Thripidae. We present new records, including first records for Sweden and several regional records, with a detailed morphological identification key. Ten new species are recorded for Sweden, and a total of 98 new provincial records are presented. A total of 567 COI barcode sequences were generated, representing 49 species, and uploaded to BOLD.
