Thrips
Thrips constitute a small order of tiny, slender insects that can be distinguished from all other orders by their mouth parts, tarsi, and wings. All species require the use of a microscope for identification. Thrips live in flowers, on leaves, fruit, bark, in debris, decayed vegetation, and in the soil. While most are plant feeders, come causing economic damage, other are predators on other insects, mites, and their eggs.
