Brakothrips is a genus of thrips in the family Phlaeothripidae, [1] first described by Crespi, Morris and Mound in 2004. [2] [3] The type species is Brakothrips gillesi. [2] Insects in this genus are found only in Australia, living under the splitting bark of young branches of Acacias (but one species utilises a similar habitat in Eucalyptus cinerea). [4] [5]
