The genus Takethrips includes on two species, both described from bamboos and grasses in Thailand. T. bambusae has a stout and serrated ovipositor that does not extend to the apex of the abdomen, whereas in T. megas the ovipositor is very weakly sclerotised with no marginal serrations. Yoshinothrips from Thailand and Japan is similar to Takethrips, but the three known species all have two pairs of long pronotal posteroangular setae, and the ovipositor stout and boldly serrated.
