Species of the genus Scirtothrips are studied from Malaysia for the first time. Six species of this genus are here recorded from Malaysia: S. dobroskyi is newly recorded, and four new species: S. lantanae sp.n., S. lixinae sp.n., S. hitam sp.n. and S. malayensis sp.n. are described together with an illustrated identification key. Relationships were examined between S. dorsalis and the closely related S. hitam sp.n., based on the mitochondrial gene COI, and a redescription of the widespread pest species, dorsalis, is provided. Biltothrips minutus (Bhatti) is reported from Malaysia for the first time, and illustrations provided to distinguish this genus from Scirtothrips.
首次对马来西亚的蓟马属物种进行研究。在此记录了该属的6个物种来自马来西亚：多布罗斯基蓟马为新记录种，还有4个新物种：马缨丹蓟马、利克西纳蓟马、黑蓟马和马来蓟马，并给出了带插图的鉴定检索表。基于线粒体基因COI研究了茶黄蓟马与近缘种黑蓟马之间的关系，并对广泛分布的害虫物种茶黄蓟马进行了重新描述。微小双蓟马首次在马来西亚被报道，并提供了插图以将该属与蓟马属区分开来。
