OzThrips
Native 
Female macropterous. Head, tibiae and tarsi dark brown, femora yellow, pronotum yellow with fore coxae light brown; pterothorax yellowish with light brown markings (darker when fully mature?); tergites VI–VIII brown, X yellow; antennal segment III clear yellow, IV–IX brown; fore wing brown at base and apex, with long median brown area, costal vein pale around distal pale area.
Head relatively long, distal maxillary palp segment subdivided. Antennae 9-segmented, sensorium on segments III–IV slender with internal markings, extending to basal half of segment; V–VI sensorium with elongate base. Mesonotum with one pair of accessory setae medially. Metanotum with equiangular reticles medially, with internal dot-like markings. Forewings unusually slender. Abdominal tergites I–III apparently with no transverse lines medially; tergites IV–VIII transversely reticulate; trichobothria on X no larger than base of major setae on X. Sternites with 4 pairs of marginal setae, II–V apparently without discal setae, VI with one or two pairs placed anterolaterally, VII with 4 pairs of discal setae laterally.
Male similar to female but smaller, femora more extensively shaded brown, antennal segments I–III yellow; antennal sensoria distinctly longer. Abdominal tergite I with two longitudinal ridges. Sternites with numerous microtrichia, 4 pairs of marginal setae, II–VI with no discal setae, VII–VIII each with 2 pairs laterally; sternite IX with 2 discal setae.
The genus Desmothrips is known only from Australia, with 18 described species (Pereyra & Mound, 2010). D. postlei is closely related to D. darwini, despite having the mid and hind femora clear yellow in contrast to the dark tibiae.
