Laurence Alfred Mound
Laurence Alfred Mound (born 1934 in Willesden, London) is an entomologist, who works mostly on the biology and systematics of Thysanoptera (thrips), an area in which he is considered a world authority. His zoological author abbreviation is Mound. Career He gained a B.Sc in zoology at the University of London in 1957, a diploma in Economic Entomology in 1958 from Imperial College London, Imperial College, London, a diploma of Tropical Agriculture from Imperial College of Tropical Agriculture, I.C.T.A. Trinidad in 1959, and in 1975 was awarded a D.Sc from the University of London. From 1959-1961 he served in Ibadan as entomologist to the Nigerian Department of Agricultural Research, working on whitefly vectors of crop virus diseases. In Sudan (1961-1964), he continued this work on whiteflies as entomologist to the Empire Cotton Growing Corporation. In 1964 he was appointed to the British Museum of Natural History, where he was responsible for the collections of whitefly and thr ...

Phlaeothripidae
Phlaeothripidae is a family of thrips Thrips (Order (biology) , order Thysanoptera) are minute (mostly long or less), slender insects with fringed wings and unique asymmetrical mouthparts. Entomologists have species description , described approximately 7,700 species. They fly on ... with hundreds of genera. They are the only extant family of the suborder Tubulifera, alongside the extinct family Rohrthripidae and are themselves ordered into two subfamilies, the Idolothripinae with 80 genera, and the Phlaeothripinae with almost 400. Some 3,400 species are recognised in this family, and many are fungivores living in the tropics.Moritz, G., D. Morris, and L. Mound. 2001. ThripsID: pest thrips of the world. ACIAR and CSIRO Publishing, Collingwood. Thrips from this family are fairly common, and are generally larger than those in the suborder Terebrantia (containing all other thrips). '' Idolothrips marginatus'' can attain a body length of up to 14 mm. The group is dis ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Thrips
Thrips (Order (biology) , order Thysanoptera) are minute (mostly long or less), slender insects with fringed wings and unique asymmetrical mouthparts. Entomologists have species description , described approximately 7,700 species. They fly only weakly and their feathery wings are unsuitable for conventional flight; instead, thrips exploit an unusual mechanism, #Flight , clap and fling, to create lift using an unsteady circulation pattern with transient vortices near the wings. Thrips are a functionally diverse group; many of the known species are fungivorous. A small proportion of the species are serious Pest (organism) , pests of commercially important crops. Some of these serve as Disease vector , vectors for over 20 viruses that cause plant disease, especially the Tospoviruses. Many flower-dwelling species bring benefits as pollinators, with some predatory thrips feeding on small insects or mites. In the right conditions, such as in greenhouses, invasive species can expone ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
