Australian Journal of Entomology 44 (1), 1-1
Abstract: Contrary to the statements by Morris and Mound (2004), Scirtothrips aurantii were first found outside the quarantine facility on mother-of-million plants (Bryophyllum spp.) sourced from the western suburbs of Brisbane and in January 2003 the distribution of the thrips in south-eastern Queensland was from at least 20 km south-east and 70 km west of the detection site. Some records in South Africa of thrips from mother-of-million plants may not refer to this species.
