The first objective of this paper is to describe a new fungus-feeding species in the Phlaeothripinae genus Apelaunothrips, and to provide a key to the six species of this genus recorded from India. The second objective is to establish a new synonym in the Poaceae-associated genus, Podothrips, based on structural variation observed among recently collected samples from bamboo. The slide-mounted specimens were studied with a Leica Trinocular Microscope (Leica DM-1000) and a Leica software application suite (LAS EZ 2.1.0) was used to make line drawing and photographs.
本文的首要目标是描述管蓟马亚科Apelaunothrips属中一种新的食真菌物种，并提供一份印度记录的该属六个物种的检索表。第二个目标是基于最近从竹子上采集的样本中观察到的结构变异，在与禾本科相关的Podothrips属中建立一个新异名。使用徕卡三目显微镜（Leica DM - 1000）对玻片标本进行研究，并使用徕卡软件应用套件（LAS EZ 2.1.0）绘制线条图和拍摄照片。
