I removed the section on how thrips were related to other insects, and this needs to be rewritten. I will hopefully get round to it, but thought quick explanations are in order as to why I removed what was already here. The article as written presented a sister relationship between Thysanoptera and Phthiraptera + Liposcelididae, but the article cited as support for this does not. This topology is shown in Figure 3, but this is dismissed in the same paper: "the grouping of Thysanoptera with Phthiraptera, and Sternorrhyncha with Thysanoptera, Liposcelididae and Phthiraptera has no support from morphological data nor nuclear gene sequences, and therefore is most likely phylogenetic artifacts." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaficek (talk • contribs) 20:43, 21 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

I hadn't heard of thrips. The article is all about the biology, but says nothing about where they are. Since the lede says there are over 7,700 species, am I to assume they are on every continent except Antarctica? If that's the case, can we add "the world over" or "every continent except Antarctica" in proximity to the species count in the lede paragraph? Thanks. — voidxor01:34, 11 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
