Franklinothrips tenuicornis Hood 1915
Franklinothrips tenuicornis Hood, 1915: 163 Described from Panama, with the synonym Mitothrips petulans Bagnall based on a male from Trinidad, this species has been studied from Trinidad, Surinam, Venezuela, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, and southern Brazil [SMF, BMNH, USNM]. Many of these specimens were taken from vines, including Vitex and Ipomoea, but others were taken from dead branches. The forewing pattern is similar to that of F. vespiformis, but antennal segment IV is paler than in that species, sometimes being largely yellow (Fig. 13).Published as part of Mound, Laurence A. & Reynaud, Philippe, 2005, Franklinothrips; a pantropical Thysanoptera genus of antmimicking obligate predators (Aeolothripidae), pp. 1-16 in Zootaxa 864 on page 13, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17085
Franklinothrips atlas Hood 1957
<i>Franklinothrips atlas</i> Hood, 1957: 172 <p> Described from a single female taken in the eastern Congo [USNM], four females have subsequently been studied from Rwanda [SMF]. The head is deeply recessed into the prothorax, resulting in a single compact spherical outline that is sharply constricted to the basal neck (Fig. 3). Unlike <i>F. megalops</i>, the tenth abdominal segment is not sharply paler than the ninth segment.</p>Published as part of <i>Mound, Laurence A. & Reynaud, Philippe, 2005, Franklinothrips; a pantropical Thysanoptera genus of antmimicking obligate predators (Aeolothripidae), pp. 1-16 in Zootaxa 864</i> on page 8, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/170856">10.5281/zenodo.170856</a>
Franklinothrips caballeroi Johansen 1979
Franklinothrips caballeroi Johansen, 1979: 153 Described from two females and one male taken in Veracruz, Mexico, a further seven females and one male were recorded from Costa Rica by Mound & Marullo (1996). Although never compared directly, F. caballeroi is apparently similar to F. suzukii, based on two females from Taiwan, the distal part of antennal segment IV being lightly shaded in the former but clear yellow in the latter. Given the extensive horticultural trade involving Taiwan and parts of Central America, particularly but not exclusively in Orchidaceae, the possibility exists that these two names may represent the same insect species.Published as part of Mound, Laurence A. & Reynaud, Philippe, 2005, Franklinothrips; a pantropical Thysanoptera genus of antmimicking obligate predators (Aeolothripidae), pp. 1-16 in Zootaxa 864 on page 11, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17085
Franklinothrips suzukii Okajima 1979
Franklinothrips suzukii Okajima, 1979: 399 The original two females of this species from Taiwan were examined, through the courtesy of Dr Shuji Okajima. However, it was not possible to arrange to compare these directly with specimens of F. caballeroi at the same time. As indicated above, these two species described from opposite sides of the world are similar in colour and structure. They may represent a single species whose disjunct distribution results from the horticultural trade. In life, the head of this species is recessed into the pronotum (see fig. in Okajima, 1979), but the slide mounting procedure results in a changed appearance (Fig. 19).Published as part of Mound, Laurence A. & Reynaud, Philippe, 2005, Franklinothrips; a pantropical Thysanoptera genus of antmimicking obligate predators (Aeolothripidae), pp. 1-16 in Zootaxa 864 on page 13, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17085

Franklinothrips megalops Trybom 1912
Franklinothrips megalops Trybom, 1912: 147 Described originally from Kenya in the synonymic genus Mitothrips, the following three species are considered synonymous: F. a u re u s Moulton from South Africa, F. bischoffi Richter from Tanzania, and F. myrmicaeformis Zanon from Libya (Pitkin & Mound, 1973; zur Strassen, 2003). This insect was observed commonly on trees in the gardens of the National Museum, Nairobi during August 1986. The females were not immediately recognised as Thysanoptera but, due to their behaviour, were considered initially to be bethylid wasps. They were noted to run actively, between periods of palpating the leaf surface with their antennae. The species is widespread in Africa, and specimens [SMF, BMNH] have been seen from the following countries: Spain, Israel, Palestine, Libya, Tunisia, Yemen, Somalia, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Transvaal, South Africa, Mozambique, Angola, Nigeria and southern India. As noted below, F. m e g a l o p s appears to be part of a cline across the Old World tropics that includes F. r a ro s a e in the Philippines and F. variegatus in Australia, and the variation amongst museum specimens in the relationship of the head to the pronotum (Fig. 9) is mentioned below under F. variegatus.Published as part of Mound, Laurence A. & Reynaud, Philippe, 2005, Franklinothrips; a pantropical Thysanoptera genus of antmimicking obligate predators (Aeolothripidae), pp. 1-16 in Zootaxa 864 on page 11, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17085
Franklinothrips basseti Mound & Marullo 1998
Franklinothrips basseti Mound & Marullo, 1998: 944 The two females from which this species is known were taken from rainforest trees near Brisbane, Queensland, Australia [ANIC]. In body form it is one of the less welldeveloped antmimics in this genus, with uniformly dusky forewings (Fig. 21), and the abdomen brown and scarcely constricted at the base (Fig. 4). FIGURES 21–32.
