Taeniothrips inconsequens (Uzel 1895) - (pear thrips)
The thrips is widespread in temperate regions, probably introduced into North America around 1900 where it is now a pest of fruit trees and certain hardwood trees, particularly maple. The damage is mainly done through injuries to foliar and flower buds, prior to budburst. Unfolding leaves are chlorotic and deformed.
In north-eastern North America, damage has been mainly recorded on sugar maple (Acer saccharum) serious outbreaks have occurred in 1988 and 1989. Adult thrips overwinter in the soil and re-emerge the following spring.
